SLU Dual Enrollment

http://www.southeastern.edu/future_students/dual_enrollment/program/index.html

In an effort to provide increased opportunities for college-bound high school students, enrollment in Southeastern's Dual Enrollment Program affords

students the opportunity to earn high school credit and college credit simultaneously while remaining in the familiar environment of high school. Through our program, courses are presented on high school campuses in

partnership with Southeastern faculty.

Additional Considerations

Students with a math sub-score of 28 can skip Math 161 and go straight to Math 162 or Math 241.

Students with an English sub-score of 29 or higher can skip Engl 101 and go straight to Engl 102.

Tuition and Additional Costs

• Textbooks are supplied at no cost. Damaged or non-returned books will be charged to the student for the book as books are individually assigned.

• Many courses require the use of a 3rd-party computer program. Prices vary from $15-$30 dollars with this cost being the responsibility of the student or high school.

• All courses, whether being taught as a single-semester or year-long course, will be charged tuition at a discounted rate of $175-$200 per 3-credit hours. This discounted tuition is NOT refundable should a student withdraw from a course. Students will remain in course after withdrawal.

Tuition Due Dates

Payable by check or money order made payable to PHS. No cash.

NOTE: Cost may increase.

Fall semester tuition - Friday, May 15

Yearlong tuition – Oct 9

Spring Semester – Dec 4

SLU Textbooks

SLU textbooks are provided free of charge. However, textbooks not returned by due date will result in a PHS Fine. (FYI: books cost $100+)

What are the return deadlines?Books are due the first business day following the last day of final exams. Students will be charged a fine if books are returned the 2nd business day through 5th business day following the last day of final exams. Any late book not returned by the 5th business day following the last day of final exams MUST BE PURCHASED.

Grades

Students will receive a grade of A, B, C, D, F or W at the college level.

All grades will become part of a student's permanent record at the college level.

W (Withdrawal) Grades

Letters are sent home prior to withdraw date requiring a parent signature.

Does not impact a student’s GPA.

Students must witness Ms. Latour withdraw them from the class.

As far as a W, it carries no quality points and does not contribute to GPA. One or two W’s is not a problem and this is really dependent on what a student wants to do.

If a student is going to medical/dental/pre-professional school, a W CAN cause problems.

For the most part, one or two W grades will not adversely affect a student. It also has no affect on TOPS.

SLU Grades vs. PHS Grades

PHS grade – parent command

SLU grade – Math XL, moodle account or LEONET

In most cases, these grades will not be the same. The PHS grade tends to be higher

because of additional assignments at the high school level. To avoid surprises it is imperative that the SLU grade is monitored through one of

the above mentioned sites.

SLU Transcript vs. PHS Transcript

Must request transcripts directly from SLU for college level course work.
