Minutemen Families,

Part time dual enrollment is an option for any student with a 3.0 cumulative, unweighted grade point average starting in the fall semester of tenth grade. To be eligible, students must also have “college ready” scores in reading and writing on an approved standardized test. If your student is considering taking a dual enrollment course next year, they must complete the application and enrollment steps by the deadlines listed below.

Please reach out to your student’s counselor as soon as possible to discuss if dual enrollment makes sense for your academic plan.

Application and Enrollment Procedures for Part Time Dual Enrollment:

1.      All Dual Enrollment Admissions deadlines must be met to be eligible. View the Dual Enrollment course registration related dates. Dual enrolled students follow a specific timeline and must adhere to program deadlines.

2.      Apply to EFSC

Submit the online EFSC Application for Admission. You will need to know your Social Security Number (SSN) and your state unweighted high school GPA. You should use your own private Email address when applying. You will receive an acceptance letter email  7-10 days after you apply.

3.      Take the Placement Test at EFSC or Submit Official Score Reports to EFSC if you have qualifying Scores.

You must score college-ready in reading and writing on an approved college-placement test for acceptance into the Early College Program.

You can schedule the PERT placement test through RegisterBlast, EFSC's online test scheduling system.

EFSC offers the ACCUPLACER which is a remote online option, or the PERT, which is an on-campus testing option; however, seating is limited.

If you do not score college-ready in reading and/or writing, you may schedule a retest to take place 14 days after the initial testing date.

4.      Complete the Required Online Dual Enrollment Orientation by logging in to your EFSC portal.  

The online orientation provides you with information about college resources and tools, student services, academic policies and procedures, student safety and more.

To access the orientation, log into the myEFSC portal. Refer to your acceptance letter for your Student email address and initial password required to log in. Locate the Student Orientation/Titan Preview icon in the app launcher. Clicking the icon will begin the orientation. If you cannot complete the process at one sitting, the system will remember where you left off and pick up there when you log back in through myEFSC.

5.      Complete Your Dual Enrollment Initial Advising Meeting. This can be done in an online group meeting by Zoom link from your EFSC advisor. Check your Titan Email for your link.

Prior to eligible to register for courses, students are required to meet with an advisor to discuss course options that meet your academic goals. This requirement can be met during pre-arranged group sessions on Zoom or individually via an in-person appointment.

Register for Courses

• You should review your myGPS Degree Audit inside the myEFSC Portal for your "Plan" prepared by an EFSC advisor to assist with course registration. Watch a video about how to access and find your plan.

• Meet with your high school counselor and/or review your course plan in myGPS prior to the start of registration to select courses that meet your needs for your school schedule and high school graduation requirements. This may be your initial advising appointment, and then in follow-on terms, be sure to review your course needs again.

• New students are encouraged to register for their first term with the support of their advisor at a school-based registration event or at a scheduled one-on-one advising session.

• Students may self-register for their courses online. Registration must be completed in one session for all courses for the specified term. IMPORTANT: Dual enrollment students will be locked from making any changes to courses upon completion of registration. Watch a video on "How to Register for Courses Online."

• If a student needs to change their courses, they must see their high school counselor. Schedule changes will only be made during the designated add/drop period for dual enrollment.

• View the Registration Details page for more information on this process.

Fees: EFSC waives tuition and fees in accordance with Florida Statute for students participating in Dual Enrollment. All students are responsible for paying the $10 per semester Wi-Fi/Print Access Fee. If you intend to park a vehicle on campus you must purchase a parking decal. Decals are $40 plus tax if bought in Fall Term for the Academic Year through the following Summer Term; or $20 plus tax if purchased during a Spring or Summer Term to cover those two terms. To avoid receiving a traffic citation and fine, purchase your parking permit by the end of the first week of classes and park only in student designated parking areas.

Obtain Required Textbooks/Instructional Materials

Early College program students:

• Will automatically be enrolled in the Titan First Day Ready program at no charge and receive program communications to their Titan email from the Barnes and Noble College bookstore.

• Are responsible for purchasing required consumable instructional materials that cannot be used by another student, such as lab coats, goggles, and personal tools.

• Complete the 60-question Career Coach Interest Assessment. Student must sign up and create a profile using their EFSC Student ID and Titan student email.
