SLCC Concurrent Enrollment

SLCC Concurrent Enrollment

What is Concurrent Enrollment?

Summit Academy High School partners with Salt Lake Community College (SLCC) to build a comprehensive college experience for motivated and academically prepared high school students.  The CE experience prepares high school students with the skills they need to seamlessly transition to college after high school and successfully navigate the challenges of higher education. 

Concurrent Enrollment (CE) is an academic program involving high school and college collaboration that allows qualified students to earn college credit by taking college courses taught at their high school, online, and on SLCC campuses. Currently we offer three CE classes at Summit Academy; English 1010,  Chemistry 1010 and Medical Terminology 1100 with the goal of increasing the amount of classes taught at our high school. The rest of the courses are taught online and on SLCC campuses. SLCC has eight campuses located throughout the Salt Lake Valley.

The Concurrent On-Campus program (this program is for students that take classes at SLCC) offers high schools students, the opportunity to take a limited selection of concurrent enrollment courses on any physical SLCC campus at the cost of $5/credit hour.  Concurrent On-Campus classes are mixed classes with both high school concurrent students and regular adult college students. Students receive both college and high school credit for the courses offered through Concurrent On-Campus. Grades earned from concurrent enrollment will be placed on your high school transcript.  The Concurrent Enrollment Coordinator and High School Counselors DO NOT have access to SLCC grades to track progress.  It is up to the student to monitor her/his grades.  At the end of each semester the CE office at SLCC sends the high school a grade report. The high school registrar then records that grade on the student’s high school transcript. If the class is a year long class, the grade will be sent at the end of the class.

**Please visit the  SLCC Concurrent Enrollment Website to provide greater understanding of the program.**

If you are interested in taking a CE class at SAHS, two things have to be done: 1) You will enroll with your counselor within the first 2 weeks of class and 2) you will register with SLCC. If you have taken CE classes before, you will register for the class through your MySLCC account. If you have never taken a CE class, you will have to apply to be admitted to SLCC, set up a MySLCC Account and register for the class. For questions regarding this process, come speak with Mrs. Saunders, our CE Coordinator. She is in RM 118 (next to the Athletic Director's office) or email her at [email protected]

SAHS also offers a FREE SHUTTLE that will drive back and forth from SAHS to the Jordan SLCC college campus to allow students to take face-to-face concurrent enrollment classes if desired.  Shuttle schedule is located in the counseling center and front office.

Admission - Only Once

Students must be admitted to Salt Lake Community College in order to take concurrent enrollment classes. If a student has never taken concurrent classes at Salt Lake Community College, he/she must complete the on-line application. This should be done as soon as possible. Students who have previously taken concurrent classes will not need to re-apply.

Currently there is not a charge for the application.

Please note:  There is a fee of $5.00 per credit hour that will be assessed by SLCC at the time of registration.

How to Apply to SLCC

Concurrent Enrollment Classes

After you apply, look through the CE class schedule for the class/classes you would like to take. After you have made your choice, you will need to make sure you meet the requirements for the class. You can find the requirements in the SLCC Course Offering page. Once there click on the subject you are interested in and look for the requirements or prerequisites. Click here to learn more about prerequisites.

The next step is to email Mrs. Saunders the class/classes you intend to take; for example: ENGL1010 or BIOL 1010.  She will then submit a request to SLCC for approval to unlock the class so you can register. Know that when a class is submitted to SLCC, that unlocks all sections at all campuses for that particular class. The approval process takes 1-3 days after which you will be eligible to register for the class. Keep in mind that when Mrs. Saunders submits the class request to SLCC, it does not mean you are registered for that class. You will have to register for the class yourself through your MySLCC account.

**Once you have registered for the CE classes, you will need to meet with your counselor to have those classes put into your high school schedule; whether you are taking the classes at SAHS or at SLCC.  

Registration - Each Semester

Registration is the process of officially adding yourself to the SLCC college roll for each CE class, and must be done every semester for each class through your MySLCC account. Click here for a tutorial on how to register for classes.

When registering for classes, all that is needed is the CRN for the class. Please remember when searching for a class, make sure the section number (the 3 digit number after the course. For example, ENGL 1010-"801") is in the 800's. Any other section number is not a CE class. Should you have any problems registering, please see Mrs. Saunders in room 118 (next to the Athletic Director's office).

Pay Tuition - Each Semester

College tuition is paid every semester after registration is complete and before SLCC's tuition deadline. Tuition is $5.00 per credit hour ($15 for a 3 credit hour class, $20 for a 4 credit hour class, etc.) and can be paid at the time you register or anytime before SLCC's deadline. You can pay your tuition online through your MySLCC account, by phone (801-957-4868), or in person (at a SLCC Cashier's window) using a credit card or a checking or savings account. Cash payments must be made in person at the SLCC Cashier's window.

You will receive an email through your Bruinmail account shortly after the tuition deadline reminding you to pay any outstanding balances. If you fail to pay your tuition, will not be able to register for classes in the future, or request a transcript, until the balance has been paid. Once tuition has been paid it could take 24-48 hours before you can request your transcript or register for classes. Click here for a tutorial on how to pay online!

Setting up your MYCE Account 

When the CE Coordinator submits a class to SLCC, it takes 1-2 days to get resolved/approved. This account lets you see when the classes were submitted and when they get resolved/approved. To know if the class is ready for you to register, under the status section, it should read "Resolved". This account also shows the classes you have registered for and the grade you receive from your teacher. Click on this link to take you to the MyCE Webpage.

  1. Once there click on "High School Student"
  2. Click Reset Password
  3. Enter your Bruin Email ([email protected])
  4. You will be asked to check your bruinmail through your MySLCC account
  5. Follow the instructions from the email and click on the link to reset the password
  6. Type your MySLCC password (the long one you created)

Once that is complete, you will be able to access the tabs on the right to see the information you want. If you need help to set your MyCE account, come talk with Mrs. Saunders in room 118!

What is the General Education Certificate of Completion?

Students who take CE classes have an opportunity to earn the General Education Certificate of Completion. This certificate is official proof that a student has completed the general education requirements of an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science degree. It is transferrable to colleges and universities as fulfillment of general education credit. Depending on your institution, you may be required to take institution specific classes after transferring. SLCC’s General Education (GE) program provides the subject-area knowledge and learning skills foundation for 2- and 4-year degrees.

Core and Institutional courses make up the general education foundation. Distribution Areas courses give an opportunity to explore various subjects. General education courses are highly advisable for concurrent enrollment students; they are required for college graduation and transferable from one Utah System of Higher Education (USHE) institution to another.

Students completing all GE requirements would take 5 CE classes junior year, 1 credit Early Enrollment Lifelong Wellness class during the summer, and 6 CE classes senior year. Earn a SLCC General Education Certificate of Completion that is transferable to all USHE institutions.

If this is something you would like to pursue, you are strongly encouraged to meet with a SLCC Academic Advisor and our CE Coordinator, Mrs. Saunders at  [email protected].

Pre-requisites

Some concurrent enrollment courses have prerequisites or requirements that need to be met before you are eligible to take the course. Click here to see if the class you want to take needs prerequisites.  If you do not have the necessary pre-requisites for any given course by the registration deadline, you cannot register for the class. It is highly encouraged to familiarize yourself with these prerequisites. If you need more help, talk to your CE coordinator.

SLCC Placement Process

Some classes require a placement test or ACT score. Many students use the SLCC Placement Process to meet placement prerequisites. The test is administered remotely, online, on a computer (not a cellular phone) and the results are added to your SLCC records within 24-48 hours. The cost for the first test is included in the admission fee. The link below will take you to the site where you can learn more.
