Spring 2025 Updates
Please read the information on this page carefully, as the enrollment process has changed for spring 2025.
Dual Enrollment is a program that allows current high school and adult school students to take classes at Folsom Lake College. Dual Enrollment students may enroll in 11 units each semester (across the Los Rios district).
Eligibility
- The student has completed eighth grade or will be at least 14 years old by the first day of instruction (visit the Academic Calendar to find the first day of the full term).
- The student is prepared for advanced study as recommended by their school official.
- If a high school student, then the student has parental consent to be admitted and enrolled at the college.
Note: Your high school may have a College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) agreement with Folsom Lake College that establishes pathways of courses that meet specific goals. Students participating in CCAP Dual Enrollment programming must submit the Special Admit Form described on this page.

Not a Dual Enrollment Student?
If you are not a Dual Enrollment student, then you may need to follow different steps. Find out what type of student you are and get the correct steps for you!
Apply to Folsom Lake College
Create an OpenCCC account using a personal email (or log in if you already have an account) and fill out the online application for Folsom Lake College. As a Dual Enrollment student, select enrolling in high school and college at the same time.
Students who submit an application without a social security number (SSN), work authorization SSN, or individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN) will need to fill out a Student ID Help Form to process their application and receive their student ID number.
Continuing/Current Students
If you are a continuing (current) student, then you need to submit a supplemental enrollment form each semester instead of a CCCApply application. You can find the Supplemental Enrollment Form in eServices (click on the Tasks tile). The form asks you to review and update your contact information, education goal, and major.
Students Must Reside in California
Students who are not physically located in California may not enroll in online courses offered by Folsom Lake College. Folsom Lake College is not authorized to provide education outside the boundaries of the State of California.

Students must use a personal email, not a high school email, to complete their application. Free email accounts are available from many sources:
Note: While all of the providers listed above have millions of users and are widely trusted to be reliable and secure, OpenCCC and the CCC Chancellor's Office do not endorse any particular email providers, and will have no liability should any issues arise with a particular email provider.
You only need to submit one CCCApply application to take classes at any college in the Los Rios district – don't spend unnecessary time submitting separate applications for each college.
After your application is processed, we will email you a student ID number and instructions for next steps.
Students who have created a CCCApply account must log in using the account they created; they should not create a new account. Students who forgot their username/password can use the "Forgot" icon on the CCCApply site.
Students who use this function and still cannot find their username/password can call the OpenCCC helpline. If they don’t have their username or password and aren’t able to answer security questions to retrieve that information, then the student will have to contact CCCApply directly.
Folsom Lake College does not have access to CCCApply account information.
Under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) and Section 49061 of the Education Code, parents of community college students do not have a right of access to their children's student records, regardless of whether the student is under the age of 18.
