College Before Graduation - Important Information

BVSD partners with local colleges and universities to support students in getting a head start on earning college credits and gaining industry certifications.

Concurrent and dual enrollment refer to courses where students simultaneously earn college credits while completing high school requirements. Benefits of concurrent/dual enrollment include:

  • Experiencing the transition to college coursework while in a supportive high school environment
  • Saving on college tuition costs
  • Getting ahead on earning a college degree
  • Earning college credit while completing high school graduation requirements*

*BVSD defers to the college policies and practices for grading. The grade earned in the college course is the same grade that will be reflected on the high school transcript.

The ASCENT and TREP Programs cover tuition for the first 1-2 years after students complete high school.

Thanks to our friends at Impact on Education, BVSD is able to provide supplemental support to ensure students have equal access to opportunity. We are able to cover the cost of student fees and learning materials for qualified students thanks to their generous support.
