Dual Enrollment: High School or Adult School Admission and Enrollment Steps

Dual Enrollment is a program that allows current high school and adult school students to take classes at Los Rios Community College District. Dual Enrollment students may enroll in 11 units each semester (across the Los Rios district). Applications must be submitted to each individual college. Note: The term "Dual Enrollment" is replacing "Advanced Education" beginning in Summer 2023. For more definitions, see Los Rios Administrative Regulation R-2212.

Eligibility

• The student has started the 9th grade or will be at least 14 years old by the first day of instruction (visit the Academic Calendar to find the first day of the full term).
• The student is prepared for advanced study as recommended by the high school principal or their designee.
• If a high school student, then the student has parental consent to be admitted and enrolled at the college.

Note: Your high school may have a College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) agreement with the Los Rios Community College District that establishes pathways of courses that meet specific goals. Students participating in CCAP Dual Enrollment programming are required to submit the Special Admit Form described on this page.

Application Timelines

Fall 2024

• April 2, 2024: First day to submit Fall 2024 Special Admit form.
  • Registration for classes begins earlier for regularly admitted students, we encourage dual enrollment students to submit their Special Admit form with course selections as early as possible to maximize course availability.
  • Special Admit forms will continue to be processed after this date, however course offerings are limited and the college cannot guarantee the request will be processed before the start of the term.
