When do I need placement scores?
Dual credit students are not required to complete a pre-college entrance exam (ACT/SAT) in order to participate in the dual credit program.
Dual credit students are required to complete a Math Placement Test and English Placement Test if taking a math or English course on CWI's campus or online through CWI. Scores must be submitted before you can be registered for the class. ACT or SAT scores may be used in place of the Math and English Placement Tests depending on score.6793 -
What if I change my mind after registering for Dual Credit courses?
If you decide to drop or withdraw from a Dual Credit class, you must officially drop the class by completing a Withdrawal Form and submitting it to the Dual Credit office according to the drop and withdraw dates listed on the Dual Credit website. You can either drop the form off in-person (6042 Birch Lane Nampa ID 83653 NCMP Bldg. Room 212), or email it to a Dual Credit staff member. You can download a withdrawal form under the heading Registration and Records, on the Forms and Publications page.
NOTE: Failure to notify the instructor or the Dual Credit office will mean you will remain registered at the college for the course. Should you not complete the course, a failing grade will be posted to your transcript and you will still be responsible for paying the cost of the course.
