Dual Enrollment
Dual Enrollment Website Revisions - February 2026
The Ramapo Indian Hills High School District has partnered with Bergen Community College, Centenary University, Fairleigh Dickinson University, Ramapo College, Syracuse University and Quinnipiac University to offer students the opportunity to earn college credits while enrolled in high school through successful completion of Dual Enrollment courses. This enables high school students to gauge their ability to do college work prior to full-time college study. Upon successful completion of a dual enrollment course, students are awarded transcripts from the college/university that record credits earned. These credits are transferable to hundreds of colleges and universities nationwide at the discretion of the individual institutions. PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS A PER-CREDIT TUITION CHARGE ASSOCIATED WITH DUAL ENROLLMENT COURSES, although this charge is significantly discounted and financial aid may be available to eligible students.
