IMPORTANT: In December 2011 Florida State Rule 6A-10.0315 was amended. The rule now limits the number of attempts a high school student can have on the placement test (P.E.R.T.) to a MAXIMUM OF 2 ATTEMPTS. This new rule overrides all previous dual enrollment rules that allowed students to have 3 attempts on the test. The college is working with the school districts to change the testing process for dual enrollment students.
ATTENTION - Effective July 1, 2010: Dual Enroll students are required to be in the 10th – 12th grade (this is for Volusia and Flagler County students) and can be public, private, or home school students. Prospective Dual Enrollment students must have a minimum unweighted high school GPA of 3.0 for college courses and 2.0 for vocational courses as specified in Florida Statute (1007.271 F.S.)
Home school students are permitted to Dual Enroll for a maximum of three calendar years or until any of the following conditions occur: The student turns 19 years of age; The student is no longer eligible to register with their County School district office as a Home Education student; The student completes his/her high school course work; or The student completes the requirements for an Associate of Arts degree. Please see the Dual Enrollment Catalog website for further information.
Important Information for Home School Students/Parents:
This site includes both information from the Parent site and the Guidance Counselor site since the Home School parent is responsible both for the 'parental' role in the process and the approval agent (guidance counselor/school designee/principal).
