Position Statement

Guidelines for Dual Enrollment in Mathematics

Dual enrollment programs are programs in which a high school student enrolls in a postsecondary institution and may earn credit in both sectors simultaneously. Dual enrollment courses are not intended to replace a strong high school curriculum.
The mathematics faculty at the two-year college should set the standards for and participate in:

• determining which courses to offer in the dual enrollment program;
• faculty selection;
• course content and prerequisites;
• assessments and evaluations; and
• standards for granting college credit

for mathematics courses in the dual enrollment program.
