Dual Enrollment (DE) is a category of Reese High School's academic program for selected high school juniors and seniors who have needs and/or desire for a course or courses not offered in our current program. This program is offered in conjunction with local public university or local public college course offerings during each of their semesters. Private colleges/universities do not qualify. Additional information and requirements are in the High School Handbook.

1. The student must have taken the PSAT, SAT or ACT and have at least one qualifying score.

2. The dual enrollment application must have been turned into the academic advising office by the due date and endorsed by your academic advisor or administration.

3. The student must be on track for meeting all of Reese High School's graduation requirements.

4. A student must carry seven classes between high school classes and Dual Enrollment classes per semester.

5. The district must not offer the college courses for which state school aid funds are used, and must be an academic course and be a requirement towards a certificate or degree program. Courses that are activity, recreation, or religious in nature will not be approved.

6. Students are no longer eligible if they are no longer on track for meeting all of Reese High School's graduation requirements.

7. Students may elect to take the college classes for either college credit only OR college and high school credit.*

*Grades will be computed for high school GPA and class rank may be impacted.

8. Reese Public Schools will pay tuition, mandatory course fees, materials fees (including textbooks required for a course), and registration fees up to the allowed amount per credit, which varies each year. Students are responsible for all expenses not eligible for reimbursement, as well as eligible items over and above the school funding amount.

9. Dual enrollment course eligibility is subject to changes made by the Michigan Department of Education Per Pupil Funding requirements and are subject to change. We cannot override the rules governing funding reimbursement for dual enrollment courses.
