DUAL ENROLLMENT PROGRAM

Brookhaven Academy along with Copiah-Lincoln Community College started a dual enrollment program for our students. The purpose of the dual enrollment is to provide the opportunity for advanced high school seniors to earn college credit prior to graduation from high school.

Only students with at least a 3.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale on all high school courses are eligible for dual enrollment. Credits earned by students enrolled in the Dual Enrollment Program are held until regular admission status is obtained at some college or university. To be admitted to the Dual Enrollment Program, students must have the following:

¨ A minimum of fourteen (14) core high school units;

¨ Application for admission to Copiah-Lincoln Community College;

¨ Minimum ACT composite score of sixteen (16) or the equivalent SAT score;

¨ An overall 3.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale, or better, on all high school courses, as documented by an official high school transcript; and

¨ Recommendation form completed by their high school principal and/or guidance counselor stating ACT score and GPA.

Courses offered at this time are English Comp. I, English Comp. II, and College Algebra. To qualify for English Comp, a student must have an ACT English score of 16 and for College Algebra, an ACT Math score of 19 or above.
