I qualify for dual enrollment!  How do I apply?
Here's how to apply online to Palm Beach State College as a high school Dual Enrolled student.  Go to: https://www.palmbeachstate.edu/dualenroll/  Click on the link for Steps & Guidelines found underneath Public/Charter schools.  
Go to Step 2 and click on Apply to PBSC.  Say NO to all three questions. This will bring you to the portal in which you can enter your student number and password.  You need to remember this username/password - so write them down so you won't forget.

In order to receive your books for dual enrollment courses, you will have to see your counselor in order to get a book voucher form that you must fill out and have your counselor sign.  You will then need to bring a copy of your PBSC class schedule along with the book voucher to the bookstore at PBSC to get your books.
