Steps to Applying as a High School Student
Did you know current high school students (grades 9-12) can take classes at Mission College before they graduate? Dual enrollment students have the opportunity to earn high school and transferrable college credit at the same time by taking classes in the afternoon, evening, or during school breaks.
Dual Enrollment (DE) students pay only the health fee and the rest of the classes are free! DE students are limited to a maximum of 3 courses not to exceed 8 units for each term. For more information please see the steps below:

1
COMPLETE APPLICATION
Complete the application to Mission College via CCC Apply and get a student ID sent to you.

principal or counselor. This form must be submitted each semester of dual enrollment.

SEE HIGH SCHOOL COUNSELOR
Students should first meet with their high school counselor to choose appropriate
classes for high school credit. Mission College Counseling faculty offer drop-in counseling
services to provide more information about Mission College classes, majors, and academic
requirements

ASSESSMENT
Students interested in taking a class with an English, Math or Reading prerequisite
must take an assessment test prior to registration to determine eligibility. Students
interested in taking a course without any prerequisites no longer have to take an
Assessment test. The Assessment Center located in room SEC-109 offers computerized placement tests on a “first come – first serve basis.”
Contact the Assessment Center at 408.855.5099 with any questions. See the Assessment Center current schedule for placement testing.
Minor students entering in 8th grade or below are required to contact the Vice President
of Student Services for enrollment approval at Mission. Meeting with the Vice President
does not guarantee approval for admission. Please send message to dual.concurrent@missioncollege.edu
Current or previous Mission students that are below the 9th grade, at the time of
enrollment, will be grandfathered in and allowed to enroll without preapproval. These
students should be directed to A&R for verification of previous enrollment.

ENROLL IN CLASS
After completing Steps 1-4, registration must be in person at the Admissions & Records Office (SEC-118) based on registration date. Completed Dual Enrollment Form and picture ID are required
