High School Enrichment

The Clovis Community College High School Enrichment program offers high school students an opportunity to enroll in college courses and receive college credit. Exceptions to this policy are outlined in the High School Enrichment application.

Generally, courses of a remedial nature, courses for which failing grades were earned, and courses required for high school graduation do not meet the intent and spirit of the program. Students must meet all the necessary prerequisites for any course in which they wish to enroll. Students admitted to the program are treated as new students each semester attended, and are eligible to register during the open enrollment period.

Frequently Asked Questions

Registration

Yes, the High School Enrichment/Dual Enrollment application is different than the application seniors fill out for regular admission after graduation. If you want to take classes during your senior year as well as classes after you graduate high school, you will need to fill out both online applications using the same CCCApply account. The regular application can be found on the Graduating Seniors page.

If you have been waitlisted for a class you will need to check your college email periodically for a “permission to register” email. This email is time-sensitive and will expire if not accessed in the allotted timeframe. Enrichment students cannot register online. Once you have received this email you will need to forward it to cccaandr@scccd.edu and include the following:

  • The forwarded email
  • That you are an enrichment student
  • Your full name and SCCCD ID number

If you have not received permission to register by the first day of class, you will need to email the instructor to see if they have space to add you to the class.

High School Enrichment students cannot register online, including adding or dropping a class. Once you submit your online application and your High School Enrichment Packet, you will be notified via your college email when/if you are registered for your selected class(es). If you need to add or drop a class, follow the instructions in the section below.

Changing/Adding/Dropping a Course

High School Enrichment students are not allowed to add or drop a course online through Self-Service. If you want to add or a drop a course, you must contact Admissions & Records at 559-325-5230 so we can add or drop the course for you.

If you want to take a different course than the original one you selected, you must contact the CCC Counseling office and provide them with the new course information. A counselor will then review your HSE packet and transcripts again in order to make sure you eligible to take this new course. If the course is approved, Counseling will forward your application to the Admissions & Records Office for registration. If the course is not approved, counseling staff will notify you by phone or email as to why it was not approved.

Failing to notify the counseling office to drop a course may result in a student receiving a “W” or “F” letter grade on his or her transcripts and becoming ineligible to participate in the High School Enrichment program. It is the High School Enrichment student’s responsibility to notify the counseling office if he or she decides to not take a course after he or she was successfully registered for the course. Credit courses will remain on the student’s permanent record even if the secondary school uses the coursework for high school credit. All coursework taken will appear on the student’s SCCCD transcript and may affect their financial aid or academic status at any SCCCD college or center if enrolled after high school. Visit the Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy webpage or Academic or Progress Probation webpage for financial aid and probation policies.
