Private (Non-Public) School Students:
According to s. 1007.271(24), F.S., each postsecondary institution eligible to participate in the dual enrollment program pursuant to s. 1011.62(1)(i) must enter into a private school articulation agreement with each eligible private school in its geographic service area seeking to offer dual enrollment courses to its students, including, but not limited to, students with disabilities.
For students enrolled at a Florida private high school, we recommend:
-
A parent or guardian confirms the private school has entered into a private school articulation agreement with an eligible postsecondary institution
-
A parent or guardian contacts the Dual Enrollment Coordinator at the desired FCS institution to ensure successful enrollment

Pensacola State College
PSC Dual Enrollment is an exciting opportunity that allows students to take college classes and earn credit simultaneously towards both their high school diploma and college degree(s). Classes and books are FREE!
Students can take college classes conducted during school hours, after school hours, and during summer semesters. Classes are available online and on one of PSC’s Campuses. Classes aren’t just limited to traditional collegiate-level courses. Students wanting to pursue vocational programs like Carpentry, Practical Nursing (LPN), or Welding can also dual enroll (a list of programs eligible for Dual Enrollment participation is listed on PSC's webpage linked below).
PSC has served thousands of students through its various dual enrollment paths. One student’s path might be to take a few courses offered on their high school campus, while another attends one of our six campuses or online. Some students leave dual enrollment with a handful of credits earned towards their college degree and others graduate with their associate degree or career and technical certificate before they complete high school.
