• ! High School Concurrent Enrollment Updates

  Now is the time to begin thinking about concurrent enrollment at CU-Boulder or Front Range Community College for Spring 2019. If you are in need of an advanced-level course or are interested in trying something new, you can apply for the High School Concurrent Enrollment Program. Information is available on the BVSD website (http://www.bvsd.org/students/Pages/Concurrent-Enrollment.aspx ) and you should email Ms. Wendy Herron for the application forms. Applications must be completed and returned to Ms. Herron no later than November 14. NO LATE APPLICATIONS WILL BE ACCEPTED! See below for updates to this program.
  
  

  1. Students who are NOT currently enrolled in courses at CU will need to complete the online application for high school concurrent enrollment at CU, and the MOU; in addition to district approval forms by November 30. You can find both the application and MOU online at: http://ce.colorado.edu/programs/high-school-concurrent/#enrollment . Students can complete the online application which will be routed directly to our enrollment staff. It will be processed immediately, but with enrollment holds in place, so students may not enroll unless approved.
     
     
  2. Students enrolled at CU this semester will be automatically rolled forward for the Spring 2019 semester (excluding graduating seniors). These students will NOT need to complete the online application, but must submit a new MOU for the term.
     
     
  3. The schedule of Spring 2019 courses is now available online at https://classes.colorado.edu/.
     
     
  4. Many classes at CU – including math, foreign languages and science courses – require documentation for placement. Copies of AP exam scores or college transcripts are typically sufficient. Please contact Jared Martin, CU High School Program Manager, if you have specific questions. [email protected]
