You did it, or you soon will.

Graduating from high school, or getting your GED or HiSET certificate, is no small feat.

Enrolling at SCC is a step towards a career you can be proud of. In just two years, you could leave prepped and ready with an associate degree. Or, if you're like most SCC students, you'll have your gen eds behind you and sprint to the finish at a traditional four-year college or university.

If you are looking at options early, and want to get a jump on credits, you may want to dual-enroll in college classes – an option for high school juniors and seniors. Just check out the Steps to Dual Enroll at SCC below and you're on your way.

Here's what you need to know to apply if you have already graduated high school:

1. You can apply any time during the year by completing an Application for Admission. (A+ Scholarship students make sure you read this.) You will then get your Welcome Packet in the mail with your student ID# and login credentials for your SCC Portal.  

2. Request your high school transcript or GED/HiSet Certification be sent to enrollment@stchas.edu. If you are requested to supply additional information (i.e. change of information, residency proof, citizenship documents, Date of Birth or Social Security Number corrections, tuition rate corrections, registration restrictions, waivers) send those documents to enrollment@stchas.edu from your mySCC email for processing.

3. Login to your MySCC Portal and SCC Cougar Email Account using the login credentials found in your Welcome packet or email. If you need help logging into your SCC Portal, just reach out to our I.T. Service Desk at 636-922-8555 or email them at servicedesk@stchas.edu.

4. Go to the New to SCC page to learn more about meeting with an Academic Advisor to go over your degree interest and register for classes.

5. Visit the Academic Advising website to review an advising checklist, Student Planning tutorials,and commonly utilized resources.

Dual-Enrolled High School Student

High school juniors or seniors may enroll in college-level classes and start earning college credit. The credits earned will be recorded on an SCC transcript and may be used to fulfill degree requirements at SCC or at a transfer institution's discretion.

Please note: Failure to successfully complete courses through the Dual Enrollment Program may impact future financial assistance eligibility.

Requirements to be eligible for dual enrollment:

• Must have the dual enrollment form signed by your high school official, your parent and yourself.
• Have at least a 2.5 (on a 4.0 scale) high school grade point average. (Some high school districts require a higher GPA to participate.)

Dual Enrollment Registration Process:

1. Complete an Application for Admission to SCC.
2. Complete a Dual Enrollment Application, signed by high school counselor, parent and student. Then, email it to our Dual Credit Coordinator, Tammie DeLos Santos at TDeLosSantos@stchas.edu. She will register you for the class(es) and send you your schedule along with instructions on how to pay tuition. (Under Age 16? You will need to contact Tammie DeLos Santos at TDeLosSantos@stchas.edu for special permission.)
3. Submit transcript and ACT scores (if applicable) to TDeLosSantos@stchas.edu.
4. Check with your high school about additional paperwork that you need to fill out.
5. Send all documents (dual credit application, high school paperwork, and additional paperwork) to TDeLosSantos@stchas.edu.
6. Early College Academy (ECA) students are required to meet with the Dual Credit Coordinator to enroll in classes. To schedule your appointment, email Tammie DeLosSantos.

Developmental courses or physical education activity courses ARE NOT available to dual-enrolled or home-schooled students until your high school curriculum is completed. If you want to take developmental courses (courses below 100 level), physical education courses or would like to take more than 9 credit hours, you must reach out to the Dual Credit Coordinator.
