An efficient and cost-effective option, dual enrollment at Bryan allows you to fulfill high school and college credit simultaneously.
Complete an application. It takes less than 5 minutes! Use the student’s email address and contact information.
Request transcripts from high school (and colleges, if applicable). Email an unofficial copy of your high school transcript to admissions@bryan.edu as soon as possible after applying. If you have completed DE credits from another college, you must also submit unofficial copies of that transcript before classes start.
We’ve laid out a step-by-step process to connect you with the financial aid that will make your Bryan College experience more affordable.
Class registration should ONLY be done after the Dual Enrollment Application has been received and acceptance has been approved.
Once admitted, a registration link will be emailed to you when the term opens. Link to the available courses and choose your classes.
Bryan College may require additional application items on a case-by-case basis. Example cases include conditional admission, transcripts for closed institutions, etc. Your Admissions Counselor will provide additional information about any additional items.
I understand how my classes will work when I become a student and many of the current students have welcomed me in as a friend. I think the Dual Enrollment Program is a great way to make the transition from high school to college.
