Concurrent Enrollment (CE)

Please complete the following CHECKLIST EACH SEMESTER, and observe the important dates and deadlines in the table below.     

1. Contact your School Counselor - Your counselor can share information about the Concurrent Enrollment Program that allows students in 11th and 12th grade to concurrently enroll in post-secondary courses (highly qualified 9th and 10th graders will be considered for acceptance pending an eligibility review). If you are a returning CE student, you may reach out to Mr. Sardinia by email. If you are new to CE, you MUST sign up for a time to meet with him. 
2. Update your Individual Career and Academic Plan (ICAP) with your Counselor - Your counselor will examine your ICAP to approve moving forward with post-secondary courses or other challenging courses.
3.  Prerequisites - Colleges may require students to take a placement exam or consider ACT/AP scores to enroll in courses. Consult your counselor and the college about testing accommodations and any course prerequisites that may be required.
4. Complete Your College Application - Students must apply to the college they plan to attend. For Front Range Community College only, this step must be completed before moving to step 5. You will need your "S number" in order to complete the district registration. Meet with your counselor to make sure the application is completed correctly. 
5. Complete your District Program Agreement Form– You must submit a Concurrent Enrollment Program Agreement Form. The status of approval will be emailed to you.  You will need to print out all 3 pages of the FINAL Agreement & Registration Signature form (once it shows counselor, principal and district approval), have both a parent and the student sign it, and turn it in at APEX before you can attend class.
6. Register for your Course(s) - Once you have completed this checklist and are approved by your school and district to take a Concurrent Enrollment class, you will need to register at the college of choice for your course(s), pay any fees (if applicable), and purchase your textbooks. 
7. Sign up for the College Opportunity Fund - The College Opportunity Fund (COF) stipend pays a portion of your total in-state tuition when you attend a Colorado public institution or a participating private institution. The stipend is paid on a per credit hour basis to the institution at which you are enrolled and will be deducted from the designated COF fund.
