Dual Enrollment and Outside Courses

Dual Enrollment

San José Unified partners with San José-Evergreen Community College District (SJECCD) to offer concurrent enrollment community college courses at San José Unified high schools. Courses are taught by community college instructors and allow students to earn college credit while enrolled in high school. 

While the courses are hosted at San José Unified high schools, they adhere to San José City College (SJCC) rules and regulations and the instructors are SJCC employees. SJCC instructors will communicate directly with the student to help simulate a college experience. 

Students who are interested in learning more or registering in the concurrent enrollment program must contact their academic counselor.  

Outside Courses

Outside courses taken through a community college may be approved for high school credit if they align to graduation requirements and are completed through an accredited institution. Students must obtain prior approval before enrolling. Credit will be granted only upon successful completion of the course and submission of an official transcript. Courses taken without prior approval may not be accepted for high school credit.
