Introduction

River Dell High School has partnered with Bergen Community College to offer a comprehensive Dual Enrollment Program for RDHS students to earn college credit by taking the courses they would already enroll in at RD. These courses are taught by our teachers, who meet college-level educational standards. This opportunity is available to high school sophomores, juniors and seniors who have demonstrated academic readiness and received the recommendation of their counselor, school administrator, and parents.

transferability

Science courses are all considered

General Education courses and most likely to transfer

electives, which might be used as a ‘free elective’ in transfer, but BCC cannot guarantee of transferability

Out-of-State and/or Private Colleges/Universities

contact the admissions office of the school or check their website regarding their transfer policy
