Advising, Credit Transfer, and Degree Application

As a Concurrent Enrollment student, we want to make sure you have the most accurate information on your courses, credits, and how your enrollment affects your future academic plans.

Boise State offers individual advising sessions to all concurrent enrollment students/parents on selecting and registering for courses, applying for state funding, transferring credits, and understanding how concurrent enrollment courses will apply to a college degree.

Schedule an Advising Appointment

It is important to understand how courses will apply to the degree(s) that you are interested in. A course may transfer to your chosen college or university, but it may or may not fulfill degree requirements for the major you choose.

Start by exploring the website of the college or university you plan to attend, and find the course requirements for the degrees offered there. Use transfer guides to understand how the concurrent enrollment classes you take in high school transfer AND apply to your intended degree.

If you are not sure what degree you would like to pursue, check out these Boise State resources:

Concurrent enrollment/dual credit courses are accepted by all Idaho institutions of higher education and most accredited institutions outside the state. Idaho colleges and universities are accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities.

Students are strongly encouraged to consult with the college or university of their choice regarding how credits will transfer.

To learn how to transfer credits into Boise State from other institutions, visit the Boise State Admissions website.

If you plan to attend Boise State, visit our Transfer Evaluation System (TES) to determine how your college credits from other institutions will transfer to Boise State. The TES will also show you how your Boise State credits will transfer to other institutions in and out of state. If you do not see the school or course you are looking for, please contact the Registrar’s Office to check if the course will transfer.

If you plan to attend an Idaho public college or university, you can also visit the Idaho CourseTransfer website to see how your courses will transfer.

For more information on transfer credit equivalency, visit the Transfer Credit Basics page at the Boise State Registrar’s website.

Concurrent Enrollment students do not qualify for financial aid. To qualify for federal grants and loans, students must have a high school diploma or equivalent.

Concurrent Enrollment courses may have an impact on your future federal financial aid depending on a variety of factors, including failing and withdrawing from courses and number of credits taken. 

We strongly encourage you to speak with an academic advisor about the impact of taking concurrent enrollment courses.

Review Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards

The Student Code of Conduct and the processes of its administration and enforcement serve to maintain the standards of the university community. This community extends to high school Concurrent Enrollment classrooms.

The university may impose disciplinary sanctions against students when their conduct significantly interferes with the educational objectives of Boise State and its members. For more information about academic integrity, visit the Dean of Students website for resources and materials.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) is a federal law that limits the amount of information we can be release about students without their specific written permission.

If a parent/guardian would like access to their concurrent enrollment student’s account including financial records, academic records, or admission records, the student must give their written consent.

Students can give consent when they initially create their DualEnroll account to register for a Boise State concurrent enrollment course.  If a student does not provide FERPA release at this time, or if they would like to remove, change or add an individual to the release, they can complete the Release of Information form found on the Boise State Registrar’s website.
