    How to Enroll

    Enrollment Steps1. Download an Application and Registration for High School Dual Credit form(pdf)

    2. Select a course High school counselors will help students choose from a list of courses that can

    fulfill high school graduation requirements and lay the foundation for an academic

    future.

    For courses that require placement scores (like English, math, or chemistry) ACT,

    SAT, or COMPASS scores help determine which course students are qualified to

    take. If students have taken the ACT or SAT and find their scores unsatisfactory,

    placement may be challenged by taking the COMPASS English or math test andscoring higher. If students have not taken the ACT or SAT, COMPASS English and

    math tests are administered by the University of Idaho Counseling and Testing

    Center Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on a walk-in basis. Each test costs

    $15 (payable by personal check or money order) and takes approximately 45-60

    minutes to complete. Contact the Counseling and Testing Center by calling (208)

    885-6716 or visiting their office in Mary E. Forney Hall, Room 306. Photo ID is

    required.

    Please Note: If students wish to take a University of Idaho math course offered

    through their high school, they are exempted from taking the math placement

    test.

    The University of Idaho Class Schedule is available at

    www.uidaho.edu/schedule.

    3. Complete the application and get all the necessary signaturesStudent, counselor or principal, and parent or guardian signatures are all

    required. Home-schooled students enroll in much the same manner, except the

    parent/guardian will sign both the Parent/Guardian signature line and the High

    School Counselor signature line.

    4. Submit the completed application by:

    Mailing forms to University of Idaho, Office of the Registrar, PO Box 444260,

    Moscow, ID 83844-4260, or

    What You Need To Know

    Adding & Dropping ClassesDual credit students may not add or drop courses online. Any course change must be

    approved by a high school counselor.

    To add a course, fill out and secure signatures on the Application and Registration for High

    School Dual Credit form. Submit the form to the Office of the Registrar and they will add thecourse.

    To drop a course, students should send an email to their high school counselor requesting

    that the dual credit course be dropped. The high school counselor then forwards the email,

    along with their approval [email protected]. The Office of the Registrar will drop

    the course for the student and notify them by email that the drop has been processed.

    A "drop" is when students are taken out of a course within the posted drop/addperiod of not receiving a grade of W (withdrawal from course). A dropped course is

    not transcripted.

    A "withdrawal" is when you are taken out of a course after the posted drop/add

    period (some instructors may withdraw students for nonattendance). A grade of "W"

    will be transcripted. This will not affect your college grade point average; however

    you should check your high school's policy on how a W affects your high school

    grade point average and eligibility for participating in high school activities and

    programs.
