Concurrent Enrollment
Any student has the opportunity to take a college class under this category. The student must meet all college admission requirements. The district is in no way responsible for tuition under concurrent enrollment. Any class under this type of enrollment may or may not be counted for high school credit.
A dual enrollment form must be filled out.
    
 Testing Information Minimize
MEAP (Michigan Educational Assessment Program)
The MEAP Test is given to 9th grade students in October. 
 
PLAN (Preliminary American College Test)
The PLAN Test is usually given in 10th grade. It helps students prepare for the ACT and is designed to help 10th graders gain an early start thinking about post-high school options. The PLAN provides useful information about a student’s academic progress, career interests, study habits, present and future plans, along with needs and goals. Information gained can help guide 10th grade students in the selection of future high school courses and activities, along with increasing their awareness of career and educational possibilities.
Cost: No Fee
 
PSAT/NMSQT (Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test)
 
ACT (American College Test)
 
SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test)
The SAT Reasoning Test is taken by college-bound students and used in admissions decisions at most major colleges around the country. This test is required by many out-of-state schools and should be taken in the spring of the junior year. The SAT is administered seven times a year. Students may take the test more than one time.
 
AP (Advanced Placement)
The Advanced Placement Tests are usually preceded by AP courses in a variety of subjects. Colleges and universities use the 3-hour exams, consisting of both essays and multiple choice questions, to place advanced students in more challenging classes and to award college credit. Tests are given mostly to 11th and 12th grade students in May.
Cost: $85 per exam.
 
ASVAB (Armed Services Vocation Aptitude Battery)
This test is a career exploration program developed by the Department of Defense. It is a free test that measures the aptitude in five field areas and provides an indication of your academic ability. This assessment can motivate students to learn more about themselves and the occupations they may find rewarding. It is administered in late spring to 11th or 12th graders. Taking the ASVAB does not obligate you to the military in any way.
