Dual and Concurrent Enrollment

Dual Enrollment

Students may enroll in and take University of Wyoming or Laramie County Community College courses during the school day for both Albany County School District #1 (ACSD #1) high school credit and college credit. During spring registration, students must register for 7.0 credits at ACSD #1 as they may only add college classes to their schedule after providing their counselor verification of their college registration. The course must be added to their LHS schedule and students are allowed release blocks for this opportunity as long as full-time student status is maintained. Summer sessions are not included in this opportunity.  Please refer to the Dual Enrollment Contract for more specific information.

Laramie High School Procedures for Taking Dual Enrollment Courses

  1. Students will first meet with their counselor for necessary paperwork.

  2. Students must present a copy verifying college enrollment and the Dual Enrollment Contract each semester to their counselor before college classes are added to their schedule.

  3. Students may not leave a high school class early or return late in order to attend a college class.

  4. Students must print off a copy of their transcript for grade verification.

  5. Grades received in college courses will be reflected on both high school and college transcripts. A college course that is worth three credits will equal one high school credit on the LHS transcript.

  6. Grades will be part of a student’s cumulative GPA.

Enrollment Process at Laramie County Community College for Dual Enrollment Courses

Concurrent Enrollment
