PSEO and Dual Enrollment Program
You are welcome to apply for either part-time or full-time PSEO status for Spring 2021. However, due to social distancing capacities, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate the courses you request.
Minnesota high school juniors and seniors can complete high school requirements and earn free college credits by taking courses at Concordia College through our Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) program. PSEO encourages rigorous educational pursuits and provides a wider variety of course options to high school students. For Minnesota residents admitted to the PSEO program, the state of Minnesota and Concordia College cover tuition, books, and standard fees.
Concordia also has a dual enrollment agreement with Park Christian School in Moorhead and Oak Grove Lutheran School in Fargo, N.D., which allows North Dakota residents attending Oak Grove to participate in part-time PSEO. Students admitted to our dual enrollment program are allowed to take one course per semester at a cost of $100 and are responsible for paying for their course materials.
Application Requirements and How to Apply
- Complete and submit the free online application (by May 30 for a fall start) with PSEO as your student type.
- Self-report your ACT scores on the application or submit your scores to our office (optional; test scores preferred but not required for admission).
- Request an official high school transcript to be sent to our Admission Office (must include semester 1/quarter 2 grades).
All applications and application materials must be received before the deadlines. Applications will be reviewed once complete for full time and after April 1 for part time. Students should expect to hear back within two weeks. Admission decisions are sent by mail. Returning PSEO students must submit a new application each academic year.
