Dual Enrollment = College Credit

What is Dual Enrollment?

Orosi High School offers a variety of courses that are aligned to College of Sequoias, Reedley College and Fresno City College classes, giving Orosi High School students the opportunity to receive college credit and high school credit simultaneously. The Dual Enrollment Program allows high school students the opportunity to enroll in college-level courses for credit prior to high school graduation. Dual enrollment courses are offered, during the regular school day and by a qualified high school instructor and/or a visiting faculty. Some college credit earned can fulfill high school graduation requirements, transfer to most colleges and universities, and be applied towards the fulfillment of associate degrees and certificates.. Participating in this program can ease the transition from high school to college and encourage students to keep pursuing post-secondary education. Upon completion of the course the students will receive a community college transcript with the grade and units of the Dual Enrollment course.
