Registration Processes for PSEO students
- Post-Secondary Enrollment Option students are not identified to RCTC instructors; therefore you will be treated as any other college student at RCTC.
- Full-time status in the PSEO 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. It is the student's responsibility to notify the high school and get the high school counselor/administrators approval to take an overload.
- Sample Requirement Equivalencies: Four (4) RCTC credits are equal to one (1) high school credit.
- English - English 1117, 1118. If Accuplacer is 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 Accuplacer is below
1111, must complete at high school.
See the content descriptions for these courses...
- 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.
- We will have a meeting approximately 2 weeks prior to every semester’s registration time to discuss schedule planning, collect PSEO 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.
- In order to register you must have:
- Signed PSEO form submitted for each semester.
- Signature of Dale Amy or Brooke Kosok, PSEO Advisors on the PSEO registration form.
- Tuition, health service fee, technology fee, student government fee, all required textbooks, and some approved supplies are taken care of, financially, by the program.
- The Family Education Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, commonly known as FERPA, is a federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. Students have specific, protected rights regarding the release of such records and FERPA requires that institutions adhere strictly to these guidelines. Therefore, it is imperative that parents, siblings, children, grandparents, friends - anyone that is not the student of record - do not have access to view/change records of any type at RCTC.
