Keys to Success for PSEOP

 

 

  1. You need to attend each class every day that it meets.
  1. Post-Secondary Enrollment Option students are not identified to RCTC instructors; therefore you will be treated as any other college student at RCTC.
  1. Being successful in college will require maturity, self-discipline, good study skills, and time management skills.  As a general rule, you will need to spend two hours of study time for each hour you are in class.
  1. You must understand that controversial and adult subjects may be discussed in many courses and your participation is expected.
  1. If you have any questions regarding any of your courses you must direct them to each individual instructor.
  1. All requirements needed for high school graduation must be discussed with your high school counselor.
  1. Four RCTC credits are equal to one high school credit.
  1. Full-time status in the PSEOP is 12 to 18 credits at RCTC.  Part-time would be figured on an individual basis, however only under extreme circumstances should a student register for more than 11 credits when attending RCTC as a part-time student
  1. Sample Requirement Equivalencies:

    • English - English 1117, 1118.  If ASAP below 1117, must complete at high school      
    • Government - Political Science 1615.
    • Social Studies - Any courses in Anthropology, Sociology, Psychology, Economics, or Geography.
    • Reading - English 1111. If ASAP below 1111, must complete at high school.

      See the content descriptions for these courses...

  2. You cannot enroll in any RCTC courses numbered below 1000.  The program does not support these courses, as they are considered high school level or developmental. Even if you choose to enroll in these courses and pay your own way, your H.S. may not accept these courses in transfer.
  1. We will have a meeting approximately 2 weeks prior to every semester’s registration time to discuss schedule planning, collect PSEOP forms, and answer any questions. You will receive a letter regarding this meeting.  Representatives from the counseling staff will be available if you desire their services.
  1. In order to register you must have:

    • Signed PSEOP form submitted for each semester.
    • Signature of Dale Amy, PSEOP Coordinator/Advisor on special PSEOP schedule request form.

  2. You are eligible to participate in any extra curricular activities that your high school and/or RCTC have to offer.  This includes music, choir, theatre, clubs, athletics, intra murals, prom, dances, homecoming, honor societies, etc.  However, once you become a college athlete you can never again be a high school athlete.
  1. Tuition, health service fee, technology fee, student government fee, all required textbooks, and some approved supplies are taken care of, financially, by the program.
  2.
