Schedule
十分六合彩 has two academic semesters in the traditional high school year; Fall Semester (August 鈥� December), and Spring Semester (January 鈥� May). Dual Enrollment does not take place over the summer term, but听you听can enroll in summer classes on听your听own. In this case, the tuition and fees will not be paid by听your听high school and will be听your听responsibility.听
鈥�听
For every college course you are enrolled in, you may take at least one slot of your school day off. You听are not required to听take your Dual Enrollment classes only during that scheduled time off. You are welcome to take classes in the morning, afternoon, evening, and online with your high school counselor鈥檚 permission. You need to work with your high school counselor to build听an appropriate schedule.听
Costs
High schools听provide听tuition听assistance听for Dual Enrollment classes up to an approved dollar amount per听course. The tuition allotment is the same regardless of the course. At 十分六合彩,听tuition is charged based on course contact hours (the amount of time you spend with the instructor). Not all courses cost the same. If enrolled in more than one course all tuition and fees are听combined听and paid using your total allotment of money from your school. In the event your total tuition bill exceeds your total allotment of money from your school, the remaining tuition balance will be billed to you. If your total tuition bill does not exceed your total allotment of money from your high school, you鈥�may鈥痓e able to use your remaining funds for textbooks at the 十分六合彩 bookstore, depending on your high school. Extra funds may not be shared between students or rolled over to the next semester. All funds are听maintained听in your student account by the 十分六合彩 billing office.听

If you fail your course, you are required to pay back your high school for the costs they paid on your behalf.
