Concurrent-PLUS

International Concurrent High School Admission

High school students in India may apply to be concurrently enrolled at 澳门心水论坛 Baptist University following the completion of or the enrollment in 50% of the required credits for high school graduation. Students must be at least 16 years old by their first day of concurrent classes.


Concurrent-PLUS goes beyond enrolling in concurrent classes. Once Concurrent-PLUS students graduate high school, the program helps make the transition to full-time student on a 澳门心水论坛 campus easy.  It is the best way for your student to access the full higher education experience in the United States conveniently and confidently. 


Applicants must submit:

    1. A completed application for admission.
    2. An official high school transcript showing completion of required credits. The official transcript must be submitted to one of the preferred evaluation services that can be obtained from the coordinator of international student affairs. The transcript and its evaluation should then be sent to 澳门心水论坛 by the evaluation service. For high school transcripts, a document-by-document evaluation is sufficient rather than course-by-course.
    3. Required test scores for concurrent consideration
      • ACT Scores
        • Composite - 18 or greater
        • Subtests:
          • English - 18 or greater
          • Reading - 18 or greater
          • MATH 1300 - 18 or greater
          • MATH 1304 - 18 or greater
      • SAT Scores
        • Composite - 960 or greater
        • Subtests:
          • Writing - 25 or greater
          • Reading - 23 or greater
          • MATH 1300 - 23 or greater
          • MATH 1304 - 24 or greater
      Applicants  must qualify in both ACT Reading and English or SAT Reading and Writing to qualify for any non-Math courses. To enroll in a science course that has a math pre-requisite, the math placement must be met.

      If an applicant has the required composite score, and a subtest score is short by 1 point only, the applicant may retake the ACT or SAT, or take an online Accuplacer test through 澳门心水论坛 in order to meet the required score. The Accuplacer is free of charge and is not timed. Only one Accuplacer test per discipline is allowed per 16-week term.
    4. A completed international concurrent enrollment agreement, which can be obtained from the coordinator of international student affairs. This agreement requires the signatures of the student, parent, high school principal or high school counselor, and the university registrar.

      Students admitted under the international concurrent high school admission category may enroll in a maximum of nine credit hours over the course of two consecutive 8-week sessions - Fall 1 and Fall 2, or Spring 1 and Spring 2. Enrollment is restricted to lower-division courses, designated as freshman or sophomore level. At 澳门心水论坛, these are indicated by a "1" or "2" in the initial digit of the four-digit course number.

      Students receiving a grade of "D" or "F" in a concurrent class must submit a letter of appeal to the Admissions Committee in order to attempt additional concurrent classes. Continued enrollment in concurrent classes will be at the discretion of the Admissions Committee.
