Dual Enrollment

Hanover High School has been approved to offer dual-enrollment courses through a partnership with Quincy College for the 2018-2019 school year. Dual enrollment is an arrangement whereby coursework completed here at HHS, but at the post-secondary level, will be recognized on both the high school and college transcripts. We are very pleased to be offering this opportunity to our students.

This coursework will be offered using Quincy College syllabi and textbooks and will cover the required content of a college-level course. The courses are listed below and will be taught by Hanover High School teachers who have been approved to teach a college course by Quincy College.  For the 2018-2019 school year, we will be offering the following:

Credit earned through a dual-enrollment program is fully transferable to any applicable program at Quincy College and may also be accepted by other colleges or universities that would typically accept Quincy College credits. While Hanover High School cannot guarantee that credits acquired will automatically transfer to a particular four-year college or university, as individual institutions have differing transfer protocols.  Quincy College, however, does have reciprocity agreements with 20 institutions in the Boston-area and beyond to help students transition from their Associate’s degree to acceptance into a Bachelor’s degree program. To learn more about these agreements or the transferring of college credits to other institutions, go to https://quincycollege.edu/community-collaboration/.

Students who are interested in participating in this program need to meet the following requirements:

  • Maintain good academic standing at Hanover High School
  • Be enrolled in one of the courses listed above
  • Complete a Quincy College Registration form before the start of the 2018-2019 school year and return to Mrs. Deborah Kinney in the main office. * Registration Form is attached:
  • Submit a payment of $200 per course to Mrs. Deborah Kinney in the main office. Checks can be made out to “Hanover High School”
  • Complete the google form: Quincy College Dual Enrollment Sign up

*Please note: a minimum of five (5) students must enroll in a course in order for the class to run.

With the rising costs of college, participating in a dual-enrollment course can help to reduce future costs of a college education and provide early exposure to a college curriculum. This is a great opportunity for students to not only receive early college credit for high school courses, but also to gain confidence in knowing they can be successful in higher education. 

Sincerely,

 

Matthew Paquette

Principal
