Registration Information

Dual Enrollment

  • Madison City's School System partners with three of our local colleges to provide students the opportunity to earn college credits while still in high school.  Students may choose to dual enroll in classes with the University in Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), Calhoun Community College, UNA, Drake State, Alabama Early College, or Auburn First.  To learn more information about this process, please contact your guidance counselor for more information.

    When do I need to speak to my counselor about dual enrollment?
    Your counselors are available anytime to speak with you about the process.  We will be holding a spring 2026 meeting on Thursday, October 16th during Refuel in the Auditorium for UAH, Calhoun, UNA, Alabama Early College, and Drake State. Representatives from our partnering colleges will be in attendance to answer questions.  Please feel free to come see your counselor if you have any questions. Paperwork will be available at this meeting and, following the meeting in the guidance office.  Also, you can print the paperwork from our website.  

     
    What are the criteria for dual enrollment?
    GPA requirements and standardized testing score requirements (ACT, Accuplacer Placement Test, etc.) vary for our partnering colleges.  Please use the links to the side to view the requirements for eligibility at each school.


    How do I indicate that I want to participate in dual enrollment on my JCHS registration packet?
    As far as JCHS registration is concerned, you simply need to indicate which semesters and blocks that you want to participate in dual enrollment classes.  For example, Dual Spring 3rd and 4th blocks.   Also, be sure to indicate this on PowerSchool as well when you enter course requests.  Clear out two blocks for at least one in-person dual enrollment course in order to allow time for travel.  If the class is virtual, you can take off 1 or 2 blocks depending.  You cannot take off more than 2 blocks a semester for dual enrollment classes.

  • Madison City Schools has articulation agreements with several higher education institutions. Students have the opportunity to enroll in a college course for half of the school day while attending classes at their high school the rest of the day.
