  • Dual Enrollment

IWU-Marion's Wildcat Academy dual enrollment program allows juniors and seniors in high school to earn college credit before high school graduation. These credits satisfy IWU requirements and can be transferred to other universities. The program provides a great experience and exposure to college-level coursework at a reduced cost.

Why Take Dual Enrollment Courses?

  1. Complete college courses at a reduced cost.
  2. Get a head start on college and save time on your degree in college.
  3. Experience the collegiate academic environment alongside other dual enrollment students, as well as current undergraduates.
  4. Develop skills that will encourage personal and academic success during college, including time management, responsibility, collaboration, and communication.

How it Works

In high school, you can earn college credit through IWU's dual enrollment program, saving you time and money in your path toward a college degree! Eligible high school juniors may take one onsite, three-credit-hour course per term beginning in the fall semester and each summer session between the junior and senior years. Eligible high school seniors may take up to two onsite courses per term, not to exceed a total of six credit hours per term. Total credits earned through the program may not exceed 16 credit hours.

 

We’re excited that you have chosen to apply to take a dual enrollment class with IWU-Marion. To move forward with the application, please choose the option that best applies to you.

Satisfactory Academic Progress

Students desiring to continue in the Wildcat Academy program, must earn a grade of "C" or higher for each course completed. If a student enrolls prior to grades being entered for the previous term and the required grade was not achieved, then the student will be dropped from the course(s) for the next term.

Tuition Refund

If a student withdraws from Indiana Wesleyan University, he/she may receive a tuition refund based on when the withdrawal occurred within the semester. There are no refunds if a student withdraws after the fifth week.

Week   Tuition and Fee Refund

2 100%
3 75%
4 50%
5 25%

Application Refund

The application fee is non-refundable and non-transferable (cannot be applied to a future term's application).

Drop a Class

If for some reason a student is unable to complete a course, it is very important they cancel their registration. Courses may be “dropped” by notifying Registration & Academic Services (RAS) at RAS@indwes.edu using the IWU student e-mail account before the second Friday after the start of the class. When a course is dropped, it is not included on the student's permanent record. Wildcat Academy students can “withdraw” from a course up until the tenth week by emailing RAS. Withdrawals are included on a student's permanent record with a grade of "W". Students who do not cancel their registration may receive an “F” grade on their permanent record for failure to attend and complete assignments.
