Enrollment

Interested in Dual Enrollment to earn college credits while you're in high school? Here are the steps to enroll.

Students interested in Dual Enrollment are able to take courses throughout 9th-12th grade. The first course 9th grade students can take is GUI-47 in the fall at the soonest. Starting spring of 9th grade through 12th grade, students can take any course they meet the prerequisites for.

STEP 1: General Information about Dual Enrollment

Check out all the tabs on this website for information about the program including course offerings and the Course Descriptions. You will want to ensure you are enrolling into courses you are interested in and eligible for (meet the prerequisites). Consider your current workload and extra-curriculars prior to adding on a Dual Enrollment course.

To decide what to take, work with your school counselor! Your counselor can work with you to put together a plan that is a mixture of Dual Enrollment and AP courses (must pass AP exam with 3 or higher) to meet the college general education CalGETC requirement.

Additionally, if you have Dual Enrollment specific questions, email dualenrollment@norcocollege.edu and ERHSDualEnrollment@cnusd.k12.ca.us.

STEP 2: Submit a CCC Apply Norco College Application

Returning students: If you are currently in a Dual Enrollment class this term, you can skip to STEP 4. If you skipped a fall or spring term, you will need submit a new application.

New students: Head to CCCApply to create an account. Start an application for the term you want to apply to. Utilize your personal email rather than your CNUSD email (however both will work).

For assistance with the application, check out this step-by-step video.

For additional help, you can contact Ms. Goerlinger in the Remind app or email dualenrollment@norcocollege.edu and ERHSDualEnrollment@cnusd.k12.ca.us.

STEP 3: Welcome Emails

If this is the first time you have applied for Norco College, you'll receive an immediate email right after you submit your application to confirm the submission (save your application confirmation number). Following this, you will receive a welcome email in three (3) business days after submitting your application. This will include your new Norco College Student ID and email address. Disregard the information/steps under "Enroll in Classes" as that applies to non-high school students. You should also receive your MyPortal login information including a temporary password. Congrats! You're officially a college student.

If you do not receive your Welcome email that includes your Norco College Student ID and email address, go ahead and move onto the next steps. Norco College will go back and connect an ID number to you. You'll just want to make sure you get this information before the start of term as you'll need your login for CANVAS.

Log in to your Norco College email and MyPortal and save your login information. This is where you will check your unofficial transcripts, requesting official transcripts for colleges/universities during 12th grade, etc.

If you are having problems with your email, need to reset your password, etc. contact dualenrollment@norcocollege.edu. You may need to submit a screenshot of your CCCApply application and your application confirmation number to them.

STEP 4: Create a DualEnroll Account & Select Your Courses

Students who are new to Dual Enrollment will need to create a DualEnroll account. Returning students can bypass this step.

Course selection for registration, parent consent (one time only), and high school approval is done through here. Here is a quick guide on DualEnroll.

Students can select Online (via CANVAS online) or High School (in person) only for Dual Enrollment. College Campus is Concurrent Enrollment only and requires additional steps for select students choosing specific courses. Students interested in Concurrent Enrollment must follow the steps HERE.

Students will select one to two classes in DualEnroll. If you select more than two courses, you will be placed into a maximum of two courses.

10th-12th grade students: Can select GUI and an additional course if the workload is manageable.

9th grade students: Can select GUI in-person or online only during the Fall term or any elective they qualify for in the subsequent terms.

Review the course offerings under the term and the CalGETC requirements to decide on the appropriate course.

Course Type:

High School or Online options only. Do not select courses that are College Campus as those are Concurrent Enrollment courses.

STEP 5: Course Registration Approval by ERHS

Once you've created your account, gotten parent consent, and selected the courses you want to register, ERHS/Norco College takes over. We will process you through and register you for the course(s) you selected. If your steps are "Pending: College Resolve Registration," that's as far as you can go for now. You will receive an email/text once you're enrolled into the course and you will see your status as "Complete".

If the class is full, it will disappear from DualEnroll. Keep checking back as spots may open and the class may reappear. Additionally, some courses will have a wait list option. Join that wait list if you are interested.

If you are wait listed, be sure to follow the directions in your email on your next steps. If you are added from the wait list prior to the start of term, you will be notified. If you are not added by the first day, you will need to contact the college instructor for an add code. Send that add code to dualenrollment@norcocollege.edu along with your Norco ID number before the deadline to add for the term.

STEP 6: Start your Class(es)!

Remember to start your classes in person and/or on RCCD's CANVAS once the term starts. Your online-only courses will appear on RCCD's CANVAS account closer to the start date of the class. Ensure that you have this login at least a week prior to the start of term.Make sure you are not logged into your CNUSD CANVAS page -- it must be RCCD's CANVAS. Check out the MyPortal/CANVAS page for more information.

Regularly check your RCCD email as all communication will come through there.

Check the Norco College academic calendar. The ERHS and Norco College do not always have the same days off. Additionally, if you are overwhelmed with balancing the workload, keep in mind the drop dates.

Once you have completed the course, your grade will automatically be added onto your high school transcript.
