Steps for Dual Enrollment through SJRState

Steps for Dual Enrollment through SJRState

Students must have a 3.0 unweighted high school GPA and a complete set of test scores (SAT, ACT, CPT, or PERT).

Students are eligible to receive three (3) full years of service. With that in mind, you may even want to wait until summer and they would finish their three years at the same time they would finish high school.
