Dual Enrollment HB 444 Information
2020-2021
The Governor has signed HB 444, the dual enrollment bill that passed both houses and went to his desk in early March before “coronavirus” became a household word.
“Move on When Ready” is now officially deleted from the statutory language in O.C.G.A. §20-2-161.3, thus restoring the program title to “Dual Enrollment.”
- Credit hours are capped at 30 semester hours, unless students have earned a certain number of hours before June 30, 2020.
- Program eligibility in postsecondary institutions is restricted to 11thand 12thgraders, but 10thgraders can be accepted if they meet additional conditions specified in the Act.
- The list of eligible courses has been redefined.
- The Georgia Student Finance Commission (GSFC), rather than the Office of Student Achievement (OSA), is responsible for collecting and monitoring enrollment and student record data for courses taken under the dual enrollment program.
- No course retakes will be funded by the state except under extenuating circumstances as determined by the GSFC.
- After withdrawal from a second dual enrollment course, the student is ineligible except under extenuating circumstances as determined by the GSFC.
High schools are subject to examination by the GSFC for compliance
