Juniors and seniors that receive qualifying scores on either the PSAT, PLAN, ACT, or MME test can dual enroll in college courses.

Eligible students may take courses for which there are no state endorsements, such as computer science, foreign language, history, political science, or psychology, as long as they have taken all sections of one of the tests mentioned above.
