Dual Enrollment

Dual enrollment students cannot get any materials from the Online Store, only Campus Stores. Students must first contact their county dual enrollment office to obtain textbook materials. Whatever materials they don’t have, they will send you to your local Bookstore to get with a voucher. Please have your book authorization voucher (public school), official SJRState schedule, and photo ID ready. Only the student, or legal guardian of that student, may pick up materials.

Public school students must return all of their materials by the specified due date to the county Dual Enrollment office where they signed their agreement.
