| Dual enrollment is a program in which an academically talented student receives permission from their high school to take one or more college courses on the UNF campus while currently enrolled in high school courses required for graduation |
UNF offers a limited number of dual enrollment courses. Home, public or private school students who plan to participate in dual enrollment should do so in close consultation with their high school guidance counselor to ensure the courses will either a) meet UNF general education requirements, b) meet prerequisite or lower division requirements for the student's intended major, or c) substitute for elective hours in the student's intended major. In addition, comparable high school courses should be unavailable, and the university must have space available in the requested class.

The Dual Enrollment Program at UNF is available to high school students enrolled in a home education program. The Dual Enrollment Program is in compliance with Florida Statute 232.02, which regulates home education programs. The appropriate district school superintendent or designee must verify that the student is participating in an approved education program. Home school students must meet the admission criteria outlined below in order to participate in dual enrollment at UNF.

Eligibility for participation in the Dual Enrollment program is set by written agreement between the school district and UNF.
