Concurrent Enrollment
Important Notice
The University of Maine Concurrent Enrollment program is not accepting any new Maine high school partnerships at this time.
Concurrent enrollment is a program that allows high school students to take college courses in their high school. This allows them to earn both high school and college credit. The terms “concurrent enrollment” and “dual enrollment” are often used interchangeably. UMaine’s concurrent enrollment courses are taught by university-approved high school teachers.
If you are a high school instructor seeking to offer your course for credit, please fill out this form. This form is required for new and returning high school partners and should be filled out for each term and course (even if you plan to offer the same course in two different semesters).
If you have questions, please reach out to Kari Suderley: kari.suderley@maine.edu.
