High School Students

FPCC offers two opportunities for currently enrolled high school students.

1. Early College High School Students who are juniors or seniors may enroll in up to two (2) classes per semester to strengthen and enrich his/her educational program. Successful completion of college-level courses may be used towards graduation at FPCC or for transfer to other colleges and universities.
2. Dual Credit is a collaborative partnership between FPCC and area high schools to provide college-level courses for high school students. The high school instructors are pre-approved and partner with FPCC’s academic departments to deliver the college-level courses per FPCC Dual Credit Policy. This program provides an opportunity for high school students to receive both high school and college credits. Students receive a letter grade based on work completed which will be reflected on a college transcript.

High School Students enrolling for Early College and Dual Credit must be in good academic standing, be recommended and approved by their high school counselor and principal, with signed permission from their parent/guardian. The parents/guardian signature indicates permission for the student to enroll and accepts full responsibility for tuition, fees, and book charges (where applicable). Students can enroll for up to two (2) classes per semester while they are juniors and seniors. This includes the summer session between their junior and senior years. College credit for Early College and Dual Credit coursework will be deferred until the student has graduated from high school or receives a high school equivalency certificate.

1. Complete the Early College/Dual Credit Enrollment Application on our website www.fpcc.edu with signatures of student, high school Principal or Counselor and parent or guardian.
