General Information for Concurrent Enrollment With Boise State

Boise State's Concurrent Enrollment Program provides our region's capable students the opportunity to take college-level courses while still in high school or before they complete a high school equivalent program.

A letter grade based on performance throughout the course will be awarded at the completion of the course and recorded on both Boise State University transcript and a high school transcript.

Through this program, high school students can earn Boise State University and high school credit simultaneously for specific collegiate level courses available at their high school. The State Board of Education established the Idaho Dual Credit Program to provide an economical way for promising students to get a head start on their college career. For more information about the Idaho Dual Credit Program and the institutions involved, please take a look through the Idaho Dual Credit brochure. (pdf)
