Dual Enrollment
Dual enrollment is a program that allows high school students (usually juniors and seniors) to enroll in college courses for credit prior to high school graduation. This allows students to transition from high school to college easily. Students can get a taste of what college is like without being completely overwhelmed with a whole new environment.
To Qualify for Dual Enrollment
Students must meet minimum scores on a standardized test. See page two of the WCS Dual Enrollment Worksheet for details. Note: PSAT & SAT scores can be found on your collegeboard.org account.
