High school juniors and seniors wishing to attend Seminole State College concurrently must submit a current enrollment form signed by the high school principal or counselor, parent\/legal guardian, and the student each semester. SSC is accepting emails from principals and counselors as well as signatures for approvals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SSC waives the tuition costs of up to 18 credit hours for concurrent high school seniors and up to 9 credit hours for juniors. The tuition waiver for juniors is subject to state funding. Concurrent waivers may be used for fall, spring and summer semesters \u2013 including the summer following high school graduation. Limited fees are assessed to concurrent students. The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education do not permit the waiving of fees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students interested in concurrent enrollment must complete an&nbsp;online application for admission to SSC at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sscok.edu\">www.sscok.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cConcurrent enrollment gives students a head start on their higher education. Our admissions team is ready to help out any way we can,\u201d Dr. Bill Knowles, Vice President for Academic Affairs, said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Concurrent students must have a high school GPA of 3.0 OR have taken the ACT and scored a minimum composite of 19 or 900 on the SAT. Upon high school graduation, if a student wishes to continue at SSC, he or she must complete a new SSC admission application online. To continue enrollment at SSC as a high school student, a minimum of 2.0 college GPA must be maintained. A concurrent student must submit an official high school transcript, with high school GPA calculated by high school, and ACT or SAT scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Knowles suggested students should stay aware that collegiate level classes taken and grades received as a high school concurrent student are part of the calculation to determine a student\u2019s financial aid status and eligibility. If a student receives a failing grade or withdraws from classes, he or she potentially becomes ineligible for financial aid when starting college.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cShould students have struggles arise while enrolled in classes, they should reach out to instructors immediately. Students will receive an email at the end of each semester detailing financial aid\u2019s requirements and their financial aid status,\u201d Dr. Knowles said.
