LBCC Dual Enrollment Program

Through dual enrollment, Long Beach City College is pleased to offer high school/K-12 students the opportunity to accelerate in their college and career pathways by earning college credit before completing high school. Dual enrollment provides opportunities for advanced academic or vocational work for high school students and is not intended as remedial or makeup work.

Students must be currently enrolled in a K-12 school and may enroll in up to 11 units in each Fall and Spring semester, or 5 units in Winter and Summer semesters. A GPA of 2.0 or better at LBCC is required to continue as a dual enrollment student. Please note that Long Beach City College reserves the right to restrict the enrollment of high school students. There are two different tracks for high school students who wish to enroll at LBCC.

Individual Dual Enrollment

Individual dual enrollment is for high school students desiring to enroll at LBCC on their own and outside of a coordinated program between LBCC and the K-12 district/high school. Individual dual enrollment students may enroll in any available course if all course assessment and pre-requisite requirements are met. 

Early College Pathways Partnership Program (ECPP)

ECPP dual enrollment is for high school students desiring to enroll at LBCC as part of a coordinated program between LBCC and the K-12 district/high school. ECPP students participate in specially-selected courses and student support services designed for college and career preparation.

Course Selection Sheets

Towards the end of the fall semester, school counselors facilitate classroom presentations concerning course selection and registration for the following school year.  Students receive course selection materials.  Counselors also meet individually with each student to assist in choosing their courses and keep students on track to meet A-G requirements.

The district is proud to collaborate with Cal State Long Beach in offering free dual enrollment Ethnic Studies Courses to Long Beach Unified 11th and 12th graders.  Students who successfully complete courses earn both Long Beach Unified and CSULB credit toward graduation.  

The primary course, US Diversity, and the Ethnic Experience is a survey of four major ethnic groups (Native American, African American, Chicano/Latino American and Asian American) from the earliest periods of Native American history, through migrations to the Americas, into the present conditions of U.S. society.  Special attention is given to the formation and transformation of each ethnic group and their individual and collective roles in the development of the United States.

Additional classes may be available for students that complete the primary course and wish to gain deeper knowledge in the specified content areas. 

Service Learning is a hands-on, experiential, authentic learning experience. If you ask your child what kind of learning he or she prefers, the likely answer will be some version of ‘hands-on learning’. Service Learning and Community Service experiences also give students a chance to make a positive contribution in their community. We all need to feel that there is a purpose to our work, especially our young people.
