4. Point University Registration
1. We began the registration process for Point students in March.
2. Point students will then be registered for the Fall and Spring terms.
3. We are registering students who qualify to take classes with Point based on their Academic GPA of 3.2 or above.
4. Students who are interested in registering with Point University continue with the process or choose a different college to attend.
(NOTE: The Point courses offered at Woodville are limited to English 101 & 102, World History, College Algebra, Economics and 2 electives. Some of our students have completed some of these classes and would prefer to take other classes at another college).
5. Each semester, Professors from Point University come to Woodville to teach a college class during 1st, 2nd or 5th

5. Registration Process for other Colleges
Each student must apply to the college online and meet the college GPA and test score requirements.
Student must submit either SAT, ACT or Accuplacer scores.
Students register for classes they need for graduation and a Counselor approves and signs the Participation Form.
The student takes the Participation Form to the college and registers. A college advisor will provide the times the class is available or inform the student if the class is full and no longer available.
Once the student is registered for classes at the college, the student will bring a copy of the College schedule to the Counseling Office. We then make changes to their High School classes as needed to help fit the college class into the student’s schedule

11. High School & College Credits
With DE, You are no longer simply a high school student; you are also a college student. As a college student, you are no longer able to attend field trips with your classmates because you will miss class.
Each college has a different policy on attendance. For Example: Point University will drop a student after 6 absences. That is the University’s policy.
DE is a FREE program. The only FEE associated with DE is: Paying for Science Labs: $75 or if the student loses a college book.

12. What if my student fails their DE college class?
If a student fails a Dual Enrollment class it will affect their Hope GPA.
The most difficult class our students take is College Algebra. Please note that students can sign up for tutoring with math teachers here at the school they attend or from tutoring services at the college.
However if student still fails the class, they will receive a W on college transcript, but for high school the student will receive an F because we cannot add a W on HS transcripts (Only grades of A-F).

13. Eligible Vs. Who is Ready
If a student is:
*Disorganized
*A Perfectionist
*Unwilling to ask for help
*Relies heavily on parents
Then student may want to reconsider if he/she is ready.
