Course Offerings
UMass Boston suggests offering introductory courses that are generally transferrable for credit and provide broad based exposure to a discipline, as well as a solid foundation for future studies. Schools should identify a first, second, and third choice when selecting a dual enrollment course as availability is dependent upon several factors including faculty schedules.

All dual enrollment courses will need to be offered in accordance with UMass Boston's academic calendar. It is our preference that requests for dual enrollment courses are made a minimum of 8 weeks before the start of the term.
