What are the expectations of students of Dual Enrollment students?
Attendance:
Students are expected to adhere to the college calendar and attend all scheduled classes and required student sessions. Each instructor may determine how absences and tardiness affect students’ overall grades. Each student is responsible for reading the course syllabus. Regardless of the reason or nature of the absence, students are responsible for the work covered by the instructor and for the timely submission of all assignments
Discipline:
Students are expected to review and adhere to the MSCS Code of Conduct and the college’s policy of student conduct. Plagiarism and fraudulent behaviors are unacceptable. Please review the individual college’s student handbook (printed or online) for more information regarding each college’s honor code.
Grades
To maintain eligibility to participate in the Dual Enrollment program, students are expected to maintain a 2.0 cumulative college grade point average, which will be certified by the respective college’s Enrollment Services representative each semester.

Failure to return books may result in students paying the cost of the book. Students must complete and submit the Textbook Agreement Form.
