Community College Week at CHS is April 11th-15th!

We will have representatives from Southwestern College (4/11), Mesa College (4/12), Grossmont College(4/13) and City College (4/14) here at CHS during the last 20 minutes of period 2/lunch to conduct student workshops on the application process, what each college has to offer and information on the San Diego Promise Grant, where community college is FREE for two years. 

 

 

 

Dual enrollment courses are where students can earn both college and high school credit for college courses completed while they’re still in high school. Dual Enrollment courses are offered to 10th-12th grades students through Southwestern College(SWC) and are held on the CHS campus. The courses are taught by a SWC professor, where the student earns college credit that meets college entrance requirements for most UC and CSU schools. Each course is worth 10 CHS credits that meets graduation requirements as well. Dual Enrollment courses will be weighted on a student's CHS transcript.

 

All courses attempted and the units earned will be recorded on the student's permanent record for future use toward college graduation requirements. Dual enrollment requires students to apply to SWC and complete the complex registration process. All courses are treated as such as the student is enrolled in college with all communication being between the student and professor. These courses are a great opportunity for students to get college credit and experience.
