Dual enrollment is a type of Early College Program that allows secondary students to take postsecondary coursework and simultaneously earn credit toward a high school diploma, a career certificate, an industry certification, or an associate or baccalaureate degree at a Florida public or eligible private institution.
We accept the following types of dual enrollment students:
Public School DE- Students that attend any Lake or Sumter County public school who meet the eligibility requirements below.
Charter School DE- We have agreements with The Villages HS, Pinecrest HS, and Legacy Charter for dual enrollment. Please select the appropriate school on the application.
Private School DE- We have agreements with several private schools to offer dual enrollment for eligible students. Please contact your high school for more information or call our office to see if you school is eligible.
Home Education DE- Homeschooled students registered with Lake or Sumter County may take dual enrollment courses with LSSC. Please click on “Forms and Resources” to download the DE Home Education Verification Form and “Dual Enrollment Agreements” to download and sign the Home Education DE Agreement.
PEP DE- Students in the Personalized Education Program may enroll at LSSC through dual enrollment. Please download and sign the PEP DE agreement under “Dual Enrollment agreements”, as well as submit verification of being in this program.
PERT Pilot- Students who pass at least two of the three PERT Subject Areas are able to join a limited dual enrollment program. If you passed the Reading and either the English or the Math, please submit your application and you’ll be automatically put into this program if you qualify.
SLS Pilot- This new program allows students at select schools to take the Introduction to College Success dual enrollment course without having to meet traditional dual enrollment requirements. Your high school counselor will let you know if you qualify for this program. Students who apply to this program must select “SLS Pilot” in the Dual Enrollment application.
