As a Dual Enrollment student, you can begin taking college classes in high school and earn a two-year college degree by the time you graduate or soon after. The courses you take count toward both your high school diploma and your college requirements. In most cases, tuition and books are free. 

There are two options for you to pursue:
1) Dual Enrollment: Part-time (Some classes taken at the college, and remainder of classes taken at Dwyer HS).
2) Early Admission: Full-time (Seniors only. All classes taken at the college).

More Information:
-View the Dual Enrollment PowerPoint Presentation.
-View the Dual Enrollment Academic Advising Guide for help in determining what classes.

-Students must have a minimum 3.0 unweighted cumulative GPA and qualifying test scores to take Dual Enrollment/Early Admission courses. Visit the PBSC Testing Center website for PERT testing locations and hours.

-Students interested in taking Dual Enrollment/Early Admission courses at PBSC must meet with their counselor the semester prior to complete the required paperwork. Click here to access the Dual Enrollment Checklist.
