Concurrent Information
Is concurrent right for you? Consider the following before enrolling in concurrent coursework:
● Will the college of your choice accept concurrent credits? ● Will each concurrent course transfer to your college of choice? (For Example: You take a 3 hour Calculus I course and your college requires a 4 hour Calculus I course.) If you answered yes to the questions above and want to take concurrent coursework please be aware of the following information:
● Students considering concurrent enrollment must fill out a minimum 6 hour schedule at North. Do NOT reflect concurrent enrollment on your pre-enrollment form.
● ENGLISH & Government Graduation Requirements: o English: ▪ Students MUST complete 8 semesters of English credit to meet high school graduation requirements. ● Every Senior must take either two (2) semesters of English IV at Edmond North or two (2) semesters of concurrent English. ● Credit earned through taking the AP Language exam does NOT count towards the 8 semester requirement. o Government: ▪ It is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED that U.S. Government is NOT taken concurrently due to recent changes in EPS graduation requirements for Government and Personal Financial Literacy.
● Students must enroll in concurrent class times that do NOT conflict with their schedule at North. Travel time MUST BE considered.
● A student taking one concurrent course will be scheduled in at least 4 consecutive hours at North. A student taking two concurrent courses will be scheduled in at least 3 consecutive hours at North.
● Students must meet the concurrent enrollment requirements of the college/university they choose to attend (e.g. UCO - a composite ACT score of 20, or better, with a 3.0 GPA and rank in the top 50% of his/her high school class).
● To maintain eligibility, students involved in OSSAA sanctioned activities are required to report grades for concurrent courses weekly to the Data Management Secretary in the North Counseling Office.
