Dual Enrollment Academic Information
Dual enrollment students will receive a letter grade from OFTC for academic coursework. The student will also receive a numerical grade for his/her high school which will count towards high school graduation.
OFTC high school initiatives coordinators will notify the high school of grades earned for each grading period for students participating in dual enrollment.
The student must meet and maintain satisfactory progress with no less than a 2.0 GPA and a 67% or higher pass rate for all attempted courses each semester of enrollment. Students placed on academic probation are not eligible to continue participating in the dual enrollment program at OFTC. Students are allowed only one course withdrawal for the duration of their high school dual enrollment career. Students are no longer eligible to participate in the dual enrollment program upon their second course withdrawal.
Failure of a technical college course can result from grades, behavior, or attendance issues. Failure of a dual enrollment course due to grades, behavior, or attendance may prevent attainment of necessary units for graduation or prevent the student from proceeding in the dual enrollment program.
A student’s high school graduation may be delayed if a course needed for graduation is failed or if the student withdraws or is withdrawn from a course needed for graduation.
Many high school/college courses are offered on a rotational basis. Therefore, not every course is offered every semester.
Students placed on academic probation are no longer eligible to participate in dual enrollment at OFTC during their high school career.
