Pre-College Dual Enrollment Program

The Pre-college Dual Enrollment Program provides high school students the opportunity to begin their college careers early, on either a part-time or full-time basis.

The part-time (summer or regular academic year) student is a high school junior or senior who wishes to take up to 4 credits at East Stroudsburg University (ESU) in order to enrich his/her high school program.

To be eligible for the program students must:

• Submit an online dual enrollment application.
  • Note: eligibility is determined on a semester-by-semester basis. A new application/agreement must be submitted by the deadline every semester the student wishes to participate in dual enrollment.
• Submit official, current high school transcript reflecting a 3.0 unweighted high school GPA or higher.
• Have a standardized test score of 1030 on the SAT exam or 22 on the ACT exam OR
  • If no SAT or Act scores, a PSAT score of 980 or higher.
  • Satisfy any course prerequisites, prior to registration.

Recommendation letters should be mailed to the Office of Undergraduate Admission. Students are admitted to ESU in a non-degree status. Students who wish to matriculate as degree-seeking at ESU after high school graduation must apply during the senior year of high school using the regular freshman application.

The full-time student is a student who has completed his/her junior year in high school and wishes to enroll in a full course of study at East Stroudsburg University in lieu of the senior year in high school. Such students must rank in the top 10 percent of their class and be enrolled in a college preparatory curriculum in order to be considered.
