High School Dual Enrollment
Dual Enrollment
Through the Dual Enrollment program at Bucks, you can get a head start on college credits while in high school. Classes are held in participating high schools. These courses are college-level, preselected by the high school, and take place during the school day. To learn if your high school participates in the Dual Enrollment Program, contact your high school guidance counselor.
If your high school does not offer your preferred courses or does not participate in the program, Bucks offers a High School Enrichment Program that may work for you.
Placement tests and submission of the high school approval form are required prior to registration.
FinancialAid is only available for students who have already graduated from high school. To obtain more information about our programs for high school students, contact the Admissions Office.
Please note that high school IEPs do not transfer to college studies. Students seeking accommodations must contact the Accessibility Office at accessibility@bucks.edu for details.

Attending Bucks after high school graduation?
Your steps to becoming a Bucks degree-seeking student are simple!
- Declare a major using the "Change of Major form in your student account.
- Attending Bucks as a high school student, you were assigned a non-degree seeking program instead of a major. You'll need to change your major from "High School Student" to your intended major, even if you are undecided. Bucks has an array of majors, sometimes called "programs of study".
- Make an appointment to meet with an advisor to select courses.
- Follow the instructions for "new students," even though you will not technically be new to Bucks.
- Appointments to select fall courses will be available in late March.
Students who completed Advanced Placement (AP) courses and took the AP tests in high school may be eligible to use AP test scores for course credit. Submit an official copy of your AP test scores (sent directly from College Board) to the Bucks County Community College, Registrar's Office, 275 Swamp Road, Newtown, PA 18940.
