Dual Enrollment Guide at Multiple Institutions

Navigating dual enrollment courses at multiple institutions can be complex. This guide provides essential information and steps to ensure a smooth experience when enrolling in dual courses at Austin Peay State University and additional institutions.

Taking Dual Enrollment Courses at More Than One Institution

Important Steps

If you have previously taken a dual enrollment course at another institution:

• You must request an official transcript be sent to APSU to verify your continued eligibility for the Dual Enrollment Grant (DEG). Your account will not be updated until your transcript is received.

If you are currently registered for dual enrollment with another institution in the same semester as APSU:

• Notify the APSU Dual Enrollment office immediately if you did not indicate this on your admission application.

• You must request a transcript from your additional institution(s) to be sent to govnow@apsu.edu.

Selecting the Right Institution for Your TN Dual Enrollment Grant Application

• Two or More Courses: If you take courses at multiple institutions in the same semester, list that institution on your dual enrollment grant application.

• One Course at APSU + One at Another Institution: Select APSU, unless the other institution is Bethel University, University of Tennessee Martin, Columbia State, TCAT Dickson, or Welch College. In those cases, list them on your grant application.

Student Responsibilities

• I must be enrolled and accepted for admission as a dual enrollment student at APSU and maintain satisfactory academic progress.

• I authorize the release of information to and by the Home and Host schools as needed to determine grant eligibility. This information might include GPA, course schedule, transcripts, account information, and other information needed to determine eligibility.

• I will be responsible for any refunds or repayments required if I drop or withdraw from class.

• I must abide by any policies and procedures regarding financial aid and/or procedures at APSU and the Host school.

• I understand that Dual Enrollment Grant funds will be disbursed directly to my Home school according to all Tennessee Education Lottery Scholarship Program guidelines. 

• I am responsible for paying all remaining charges due to the Home and Host schools.

By submitting the online admission application, the student agrees to the terms and conditions of the dual enrollment grant process and states that, to the best of their knowledge, all information contained therein is accurate. The student understands that failure to comply with any of the conditions of this agreement could result in the agreement being canceled.
