Accelerated High School Students

 

 

Definition: A student who is attending high school and wishes to attend LSCC for college and /or high school credit. (You must complete an “Application for Admission” and the “Accelerated/Dual Enrollment High School Student” form.)

Eligible students may enroll in college courses conducted during school hours, after school hours and during summer term.  Courses offered shall be drawn from the College's existing academic inventory or courses for credit.  Courses numbered below the 100 level are not eligible for enrollment under this plan. 

You may take courses which fulfill college requirements during your junior and senior years in high school. Upon graduation from high school, you may enroll at LSCC or transfer college credits earned to another college or university. Please note that course content, instructional strategy and academic rigor of all classes are based on the college level.  Student eligibility is determined by each individual school system and may be more limited than the minimum requirements listed below:

  • You must have successfully completed the 10th grade.

  • You must submit appropriate ID as required by policy 801.01 in order to be admitted. 

  • You must have completed any required high school prerequisites (for example, a student may not take English Composition until all required high school English courses have been completed). You must also take the COMPASS assessment or have an appropriate ACT or SAT score.

  • The local principal and / or his or her designee must sign the form on the reverse side of the “Application for Admission” certifying that you have a minimum cumulative (B) 3.0 grade point average and recommend that you be admitted to this program. A new form must be submitted each semester that you attend the college.

  • Your official high school transcript must be on file. An updated transcript must be submitted each term you enroll under this plan. 

  • LSCC will not officially award college credit to accelerated high school students until proof of high school graduation (an official transcript with a graduation date) is provided.
