Concurrent Enrollment Processing Timeline
Concurrent Enrollment Processing Timeline
Alexandria Technical & Community College’s Concurrent Enrollment program staff relies on the strong partnerships with our high school administration, counselors, and faculty. Each high school designates
a contact person as the high school coordinator for the partnership who will be responsible for communicating all student enrollment information along with any changes to planned courses or instructors. Here are the annual expectations of the high
school coordinator.
Coordinators are responsible for knowing all student policies and for ensuring that all students submitted to ATCC on rosters are meeting both the Concurrent Enrollment eligibility and course pre-requisites.
It is critical that ATCC Concurrent Enrollment staff are notified of any changes to student rosters, course dates, or instructor assignments as soon as they happen to avoid any risk to our ability to run the concurrent enrollment courses.
