Enrollment in Schools without Dual Enrollment Agreements
With principal’s permission, students may dual enroll in colleges or universities other than
those that have Dual Enrollment Agreements with the SDPBC. Students must adhere to the
Dual Enrollment Agreement Guidelines set up by the school. Participation in Dual Enrollment is
subject to the school’s schedule. Students must meet the Dual Enrollment eligibility criteria set
forth by the District.
The parent(s) and/or student will be responsible for payment of fees and instructional
materials. Excluding the required fees, all other rights and privileges will be afforded these
students as those under Dual Enrollment Agreements (Dual Enrollment Articulation Agreement
between the School District, Palm Beach State College, and Florida Atlantic University). All
courses that are not on the Dual Enrollment Course Equivalency List will be awarded a 0.5
elective credit. (Refer to Dual Enrollment Equivalency List at:

Dual Enrollment for Home Education Students
Registered Home Education students may participate in the Dual Enrollment Program following
the criteria set forth in the Dual Enrollment Articulation Agreement, including written
verification of active status provided by the Home Education Office for each term enrolled.
Home Education students incur no tuition costs, but are responsible for textbook costs, unless
waived by the post-secondary institution. [Florida Statute §1007.271(1)(13)(17)]
EARLY ADMISSION TO COLLEGE
The University Boards of Trustees, Florida College System Institution Boards of Trustees, and
District School Boards are encouraged to establish intra-institutional and interinstitutional
programs to maximize articulation. All secondary students and their parents(s) shall be
informed of Dual Enrollment as an educational option and mechanism for acceleration. [Florida
Statutes §§ 1007.22(1)(2), 1007.27, & 1007.271(10)]
In accordance with Florida Statutes §§ 1007.271(10) and 1002.20(6)(a), early admission is a
public school choice option and an acceleration mechanism. Students who apply for early
admission to college must notify the high school principal prior to submitting an application for
acceptance to a college, university, or career center. In the event that a qualified student is
accepted for admission to an accredited college or university prior to the completion of high
school graduation requirements, the high school principal may approve the fulfillment of
graduation requirements through the acceptance of college-level credit. Early admission
students attend one postsecondary institution and are not eligible to take any courses at the
high school site. Early admission students are eligible to participate in graduation ceremonies
and social events that would be afforded them, had they remained at the high school for their
