Huskins and Dual Enrollment

The Huskin's Program and Dual Enrollment Program are state funded academic activities that allow high school students the opportunity to earn college credit while at the same time using the same courses to satisfy high school elective credit requirements. Cape Fear Community College is the accreditation institution. The courses of study range from vocational classes to college transferable academic classes. Only high school students are enrolled. The intent of this program is to help students begin vocational diploma and certificate programs early as well as allowing four year college students the opportunity to begin their college studies and to earn credits that are fully transferable.

Applications and course descriptions can be obtained from the counseling office assistant or from Brenda Davis.


General Requirements:


1. Laney HS encourages all High School students to consider taking Huskins and Dual Enrollment courses.

2. All students must take CFCC's ASSET/Accuplacer Placement Test before enrolling in classes.

*some courses require a certain reading or math proficiency.

*SAT (V-470/M-450) and /or ACT (V-19/M-18) test scores may substitute for the ASSET test. Test scores must be sent directly from testing board to CFCC.

3. All students must fill out a separate application form for each term.

4. Courses must be courses that are NOT available at Laney HS.

  • For courses offered at CFCC, transportation is the responsibility of the student. Some courses are held at Laney HS. Because of resources, most of the vocational classes are held at CFCC. 
  • All students taking courses at the CFCC must be sixteen years or older. In addition, they must be a Junior or Senior.

5. Though classroom discipline should not be an issue for these college courses, if a problem should arise, it will be handled by the individual instructor. At instructor's discretion a student may be removed with a grade of "F", and the student will be required to adjust his/her Laney schedule accordingly.

6. A Laney HS student must be enrolled in at least two traditional high school classes each term.

7. No class taken under these two programs can replace state required classes for high school graduation.

8. Students must be in attendance 80% of the clock hours of a course to receive credit.

9. All students enrolled in CFCC courses adhere to the rules and regulations of that institution as defined by their catalog - PARTICULARLY DATES AND DEADLINES, as well as Drop Out Procedures.

  •  Other Points and Considerations:
  • CFCC pays for all the instructors and tuition costs. Those taking courses at CFCC must pay a student activity fee ($9.50).
  • New Hanover County pays for all texts for Huskins tech/prep classes. At this time, academic class texts are purchased by the student.
  • All classes are offered during the regular school day, usually two to three times per week during the afternoon (generally third and/or fourth periods).

    Students enrolled in "transfer courses" receive one weighted grade point for each three credit course taken.

    If a student does not have a Huskins class scheduled he/she must leave Laney's campus if other arrangements have not been made.

  • Even though for most colleges these courses may count towards general education requirements, for the high school transcript they are considered electives. Students are encouraged to check with their prospective college to identify which courses in the college's catalog will be satisfied by those courses taken in the Huskins program.
  • Some courses require "cutoff" scores on the ASSET/Accuplacer Exam.
  • Some courses are offered only on the CFCC campus. Transportation is not provided. See the Course Listing for those courses.
  • Low enrollment in any course may cause that course to be dropped.
  • Additional courses beyond those listed may be offered. This list is accurate as of 9/13/04.

You may access the complete schedule of CFCC classes by accessing the CFCC website or by picking up a schedule in the counseling office.
