Parent/Guardian,
Connersville Middle School will provide time and support for all 8th grade students to complete the IVy Tech DualEnroll student application on Monday, May 22nd, 2023. Ivy Tech and CHS will be providing staff to guide students in the enrollments process. The purpose of DualEnroll is to have all potential dual enroll is to have all potential dual credit students complete the application in order to create an account with Ivy Tech Community College.
Several 8th grade students have already applied and been accepted to become a member of the CHS Early College High School program. In addition to the ECHS program, Connersville High School offers dual college credits in Agriculture and Manufacturing. Students also have the opportunity to earn college credits at Whitewater Career Center. CHS offers 32 different dual credit courses equaling 109 college credits. WCC offers 62 dual credit courses toatling 205 college credits. The opportunities that our students have are awesome!
A student must complete the DualEnroll application and meet testing pre-requisites prior to being eligible to receive college credits for most college dual credit courses. We want to get started with the application and testing while students are still in school during May. Students tend to test better now as opposed to early in August.
In order to complete the application, the student must have the following information:
- Student Social Security Number
- Student h ome address
- Student phone number
- Student Personal Email (school email may be used if student doesn't have one)
- Parent(s)/Guardian(s) phone number & address
- Parent(s)/Guardian(s) email
Any student that does not have all of this information will not be able to complete the application or required testing. The student will not be able to receive any dual credits without the application/testing. All information is stored with Ivy Tech's online system and will be on record for the life of the DualEnroll registration structure. If students don't have their Social Security Number, they must complete signup at home.
Thank you,
CHS Dual Credit Team
