Transferability of Dual Enrollment Courses Yes. Dual Enrollment will transfer to the Florida State Universities System (SUS) due to the Florida Common Course Numbering System and the statewide articulation agreement. If students do not, upon high school graduation, attend the same college or university where they earned their dual enrollment credit, the application of transfer credit to general education, prerequisite, and degree programs may vary at the receiving institution. Florida private schools look at the individual course to decide if and how the credit will transfer. For out of state schools and private schools you will need to check with the individual schools to inquire whether dual enrollment credit will be accepted to transfer.
Dual Enrollment is the start of your college transcript. These grades can affect your college admissions, Bright futures, and financial aid eligibility. Be aware of your college GPA.
