Dual Enrollment provides the opportunity for 11th and 12th grade studnts to earn college credit while still attending high school.  To qualify a student must:

  • Have a cumulative minimum high school GPA of 3.0
  • Have a minimum 19 reading score on the ACT or a minimum 890 composite on the SAT.

How to Apply:

Step 1 :  Obtain a Dual Enrollment application from your School Counselor then submit it to the participating community college, college, or university. 

Step 2:  Fill out a Transcript Request Form to have official high school transcripts and ACT and SAT scores sent to the participating school. 

Step 3:  After the application has been processed, you will register for classes.  Return a copy of the class or classes you sign up for to your School Counselor, then your BHS schedule will be changed to reflect Dual Enrollment.  Per semester, a student may take one Dual Enrollment class and five classes at BHS or two Dual Enrollment classes and four classes at BHS.

Step 4:  Upon successful completion of the Dual Enrollment class have your final grade sent to BHS so credit can be awarded.  Grade will be reflected on BHS transcript as Pass/Fail.  It will not count toward GPA.
