NOTE: Course selection will ultimately be derived from a process that begins with discussions between the parent, student, and HS Counselor.

Academic Transfer

A 2.5 unweighted High School GPA mandatory for academic courses (Some school districts require a 3.0 GPA for academic dual enrollment)

An  18 or higher on the English portion of the ACT is required for enrollment in English 101.

Students planning to take a math course with an ACT mathematics score of 18 or higher are exempted from the Accuplacer placement test. Placement of these students will be evaluated using the following criteria:

  •  Math 100 (Intermediate College Algebra) requires an ACT math sub-score 18-21
  •  Math 110 (Finite Mathematics) or Math 112 (Pre-calculus with Algebra) requires an ACT math sub-score of at least 22
  • Math 113 (Pre-calculus with Trig) requires an ACT math sub-score 23-24
  • Math 125 Calculus I is requires an ACT math sub-score 25 or higher

*A qualifying ACT score is required to place into MTH 113 and MTH 125.  Students may not place into these classes by taking the Accuplacer.

NOTE:  Students are responsible for sending ACT results to Wallace Community College for English and Math placement consideration.  If submitting an ACT score, an official score report is NOT required.  A screenshot from a computer (not a smart phone) is acceptable, but the student’s first and last name must be shown.

For an easy tip on getting the entire name to show on the screen shot (especially helpful with longer names) check out the ACT Screenshot Tutorial.

If a student does not have an ACT score, the student may take the Accuplacer for placement consideration.  Information about the Accuplacer can be found on our website or by contacting testing services.

Career-Technical

*Internet courses require proctored assessments. Students may choose to test on-campus at no charge, or test remotely using ProctorU for a fee. The number of proctored assessments vary by course.

A minimum 2.5 unweighted High School GPA (including EMS and Medical Assisting) is required.

Workforce Development Scholarship Funds may be available for High-Demand/High-Wage career technical areas (strictly based on funding).  Current scholarship consideration is for above funded courses only.
