Problem
Proposed Solution
This issue has been raised in the CCC-Admissions listserv, as well as emails from college staff, and discussed in the February 11, 2020 Steering meeting.
Linda Vann, VC, CCCCO - has posted that she is working with CCCApply on a change but I have not yet heard from them on this. Meanwhile, I will begin looking into this and talking to colleges on what they want.
Once we have a proposed change, we will announce to colleges for feedback.

Email Dual Enrollment students enrolling in non-degree applicable courses for DSPS_.pdf
Hello Folks,
During a meeting last week, a question came up regarding dual enrollment students utilizing DSPS services. Currently, the DSPS department has students enroll in a non-degree applicable course (EA-907), which allows the student to schedule meetings in the DSPS office throughout the semester to complete learning disability testing.
Current policy does not allow dual enrollment students to enroll in non-degree applicable, or non-college level courses. Since the EA-907 course is not degree-applicable, my first thought is we shouldn’t allow dual enrollment students to enroll. However, this course is used as a means of providing DSPS services to students. Education code 48800 states the “school district may determine which pupils would benefit from advanced scholastic or vocational work.” The term “advanced scholastic” is what concerns me as the non-degree applicable course would not fit into this category. That being said, can students who are enrolled with DSPS, and who are dual enrollment, enroll in a non-degree applicable course if the course is used to assess DSPS needs?
Hello,
Here is an update for you.
On SB 554, we are currently working with MIS on an update to identifier SB 11, in order to track adult students. In addition, we are working with CCCApply with regards to the blocker that is currently in place that does not allow a special admit student to be over the age of 22. Once we have these issues addressed a guidance memo will be released.
Regarding AB 1729, legal is currently working on a legal opinion for dual enrollment and we are in discussion about what the content will include. We hope to have the legal opinion by the end of the month and then can issue the guidance.
Best regards,
