Dual Enrollment Program
The UNC Dual Enrollment Program ("Program") provides opportunities for high school students to take college level course work delivered at a high school location. The following information and requirements apply to the Program students:
- A student must meet the same prerequisites and course expectations as noted in the UNC catalog and the course syllabus.
- Admission into the Program is not admission into a degree-seeking program at UNC. However, the grade the student receives will be on their permanent UNC academic transcript. Please visit www.unco.edu/registrar/etranscripts.aspx for ordering information. The credits earned in the course(s) may transfer from UNC to another college or university if allowed by that institution. The student should check with the institution that will be attended regarding transfer of credits.
- A student with a GPA below 2.0 in a Program course(s) completed will be placed initially on academic probation if the student is subsequently admitted to UNC in a degree-seeking program.
- A student who earns a grade of "C-" in a Program course(s) has the option thereafter to register for additional course(s) to provide the student the opportunity to maintain a UNC GPA at or above 2.0.
- A student who earns a grade lower than a "C-" in a Program course will no longer be eligible to participate in additional Program courses.
- A student (or the student's parent/guardian if the student is under 18 years of age) is responsible to UNC for payment of tuition and fees for Program courses.
- A student is not eligible for privileges provided to UNC degree-seeking students. Thus, a Program student is not entitled to participate in other college activities including but not limited to student organizations or intercollegiate or club sports and is not eligible for financial aid including but not limited to federal- or state-funded aid, COF, or institutional scholarships.
- A student who requests to drop or withdraw from a Program course must meet with their high school counselor or equivalent high school administrator and complete the Dual Enrollment Drop & Withdrawal Form located at extended.unco.edu/courses/dual-enrollment/register. The student (or their parent/guardian if the student is under 18 years of age) is responsible for understanding the UNC add/drop and withdrawal policies.
- A student is subject to all relevant provisions of the UNC Student Code of Conduct. Information may be found at www.unco.edu/dean-of-students/pdf/Student-Code-of-Conduct.pdf.
