Free College Course for Dual Enrollment High School Students
High School students will need to fill out High School Dual Enrollment Form.
Students with prior learning experience can read Prerequisites Information and fill out the “Prerequisite Clearance/Challenge Form” to “Clear Prerequisites with Prior Learning.”
Students with prior learning experience can also email me their transcripts and they will email Mission College’s admission office with their transcripts to waive the prerequisite for Chinese 1 and they can take Chinese 2.
If the students did not have transcripts for the Chinese courses they took before, they can email me some samples to demonstrate their Chinese language proficiency for assessment.
Students below the 10th grade to participate in the Dual Enrollment Program can schedule a meeting with Connor Keese, Director of Outreach & Student Development, (connor.keese@missioncollege.edu) to request an exception to participate in the Dual Enrollment program at Mission College.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you.
