Dual Enrollment
The Dual Enrollment Program at SCC allows students to take college courses while they are still in high school. Courses may be taken during the day or at night as long as those courses do not interfere with the students’ regular high school courses. High school students enrolled in community college courses are exempt from paying tuition for these courses.

Huskins Courses
Huskins classes are community college courses specifically for high school students. SCC offers a number of courses during spring and fall semesters at each of the Columbus County high schools. Currently enrolled high school students may contact the high school counselor for a list of Huskins courses available at their school.

The sole purpose of these programs is to provide expanded educational opportunities and additional educational enrichment experiences for high school students. In no way does it supplant the opportunities and experiences available at the high schools.

Credits earned at SCC by qualifying students are entered on a college transcript at Southeastern. College transfer courses may also be transferred to other two- and four-year institutions. High school students may be concurrently enrolled in courses at SCC subject to the following conditions:

1. A dual-enrollment student must be at least 16 years old.
2. Enrollment of a qualifying student in a course of instruction at SCC will be considered or recommended only when such a course is not offered or will not be offered at the local high school prior to the student’s graduation.
3. A dual enrollment form must be completed and submitted for each semester the student seeks to qualify for enrollment at SCC. The form must be signed by the student, student’s parent or legal guardian, school counselor and principal, and the SCC advisor. Forms are available at local high schools and can be printed from this site.
4. A student must be enrolled in secondary instruction at least half- time and must be making appropriate progress toward graduation as determined by the high school principal.
   Students who enroll under these agreements are classified as “special credit,” i.e., a student who does not have to complete all admission requirements and is not working toward a degree but wants to take individual credit courses. These students may enroll in most courses, except for the following restrictions:

Dually-enrolled students should be interviewed by the division dean and faculty to determine their past experience and academic work prior to enrollment in any recreation course except for REC 100.

Social Sciences
High school students enrolled at SCC may take history and foreign language courses and some humanities courses. They may be admitted to sociology, psychology or philosophy courses by permission of the instructor. Some of the courses in the social sciences require the placement assessment or a SAT score of 480 on the reading section of the SAT.

If students are unsure of what courses to take, they are encouraged to discuss it with their college advisor. The following are examples of courses that dually-enrolled students may wish to take during their first semester of college: ACA 115, ART 11, COM 110, COM 120, COM 231, DRA 111, MUS 110, PED 110, REL 110, and SPA 111. These courses have no prerequisites.
