Dual Enrollment for Dual Credit is an enrichment opportunity allowing eligible high school students to earn high school and college credits for courses taken at NACC while still enrolled in high school. Dual Enrollment for Dual Credit is available to students attending public, private, parochial or church/religious schools pursuant to §16-28-1 of the Code of Alabama 1975, or who are receiving instruction from a home school/private tutor pursuant to §16-28-5 of the Code of Alabama 1975. Students in Dual Enrollment for Dual Credit courses are responsible for the cost of tuition, fees, textbooks, materials and supplies as required in the syllabus of each course.
Courses offered must be approved by the student’s high school designated official and will be drawn from Northeast’s existing academic inventory of courses offered for credit. Courses numbered below 100, physical education (PED) courses, and independent study courses are not eligible for dual enrollment for dual credit. Students may not audit courses. Eligible high school students are permitted to enroll in College courses conducted during school hours, after school hours, online courses, and during summer terms. The College reserves the right to cancel course offerings when courses do not meet minimum enrollment requirements. Students must meet all applicable pre-requisites prior to enrolling in courses.
Students who earn a grade of D, F, I or who withdraw from a course will be suspended from the Dual Enrollment for Dual Credit program for a minimum of one term. The one-term suspension may not be served during the summer. The student may not re-enroll until the suspension has been served unless the student submits an appeal to the dual enrollment coordinator. For re-entry, the student must reapply to the program and must meet the minimum grade point average requirements identified above.
Upon completion of the dual enrollment program and high school graduation, the student must apply for admissions and meet all NACC admissions requirements.
