English Dual Enrollment Program

The Dual Enrollment Program of UNO's Department of English offers academically talented students enrolled in approved AP Literature and Composition courses the opportunity to receive college credit by satisfying UNO English course requirements. Successful completion of two semesters of AP Literature and Composition will earn the student 6 credits of English/Humanities credit for ENGL1010—Introduction to Genre Studies I (Prose) and ENGL1020—Introduction to Genre Studies II (Poetry, Drama, and Film). Currently, the UNO English Department grants such credit to approximately 500 students a year.
