Dual Enrollment

Students may enroll in certain courses at Mitchell Technical College without applying for admission to a program. However, the student may need to meet the admissions criteria based on an entrance exam or related coursework. Dual Enrollment does not guarantee acceptance to the college as a full time student at a later time. Dual Enrollment students will receive high school credit along with technical college credit for the Dual Enrollment course. Dual Enrollment students are not eligible for financial aid and must re-register at the beginning of each semester.

Courses offered are college courses with college-level expectations and standards. Students must keep current on their coursework – assignments, email, student portal, and other related activities. Students will be graded accordingly.
Grades for Dual Enrollment courses will be provided to the student’s local School District. Grades will also be recorded on an official Mitchell Tech transcript. All courses will become part of and remain on the student’s permanent record.
Students must follow Mitchell Tech’s academic calendar and be in attendance when Mitchell Tech classes are held. There are certain days that the high schools will have classes and Mitchell Tech will not and vice versa.
Students will be held to Mitchell Tech’s Code of Conduct.
It is the student’s responsibility to directly contact instructors to inform them of absences. Parents should not call the college to excuse students.
Attendance policies in individual classes are listed on the class syllabus.
Students are responsible to obtain their own textbooks prior to the first day of class.
A Windows-based laptop is required for all students taking an on-campus dual enrollment course. Mitchell Tech provides internet access on campus for all students.
Dual-credit classes taken from Mitchell Tech may or may not be accepted for transfer credit at other colleges or universities. Other colleges may accept Mitchell Tech classes for transfer credit and if a student intends to apply for transfer credit at another institution, it is recommended they first check with the Registrar at that school to determine transferability prior to enrolling in the Mitchell Tech class.
Completing credits through the dual-enrollment program at Mitchell Tech may affect your full-time status while attending Mitchell Tech which may impact your financial aid.
