• Go to the Course Schedule Search. Use this to look up the times and days of the available courses and then ask your counselor and CF advisor for advice.
• You can view Academic Pathways for suggestions on how to structure course selections.
• View your Degree Audit on MyCF, under the ‘Academics’ tab by scrolling down to the ‘Academic Record and Transcripts’ section. This tool can help you determine what requirements you still need to complete for the AA.

Credit limits are determined by grade level:

Go to the MyCF portal, select the ‘Enrollment’ tab, click ‘Course Withdrawal’. Submit the online request or complete the Dual Enrollment Withdrawal form and submit it to their counselor or directly to us in person or by email (if home schooled student).

A withdrawal will result in a grade of ‘W’ on your CF transcript. While it does not affect GPA, it does reflect an unsuccessful attempt at a course which may affect financial aid eligibility later on.

Students are only allowed one withdrawal before they are no longer eligible to continue in Dual Enrollment.

No. You must maintain at least a 3.0 high school GPA (or 2.0 for Career Academy/Vocational Cohorts) to remain eligible for dual enrollment. Please check with your high school counselor if you fear your GPA might be too low.

No, you will no longer be able to participate in the dual enrollment program.

If you experience difficulty with a course, do not wait to ask for help!
