Concurrent Enrollment
Purdue University North Central:
Established in 1948 in Michigan City
Relocated to Westville in 1965
One of five Purdue campuses
Concurrent enrollment for Spring 2012 was 2,247 students or
8,797 credit hours
• Offers 37 concurrent courses
• Forty six high school partners in 11 counties
(Lake, Porter, LaPorte, St. Joseph, Elkhart, Starke,
Marshall, Newton, Jasper, Pulaski and White)

Concurrent Enrollment
Purdue North Central has offered Dual Credit through the Superior
High School Student Program for many years. These qualified
students would come to campus as juniors or seniors and take courses for
college credit, and the student’s high school would determine if the course
would count for high school credit as well.
Purdue North Central began the Concurrent Enrollment Program (CEP)
in 2006 - one high school, one course and 14 students. Now six years
later, the program has grown exponentially to 46 partnering high schools
and 2,297 students
Concurrent Accreditation
Purdue University North Central has been a member of the National
Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships (NACEP) since 2006 and
we are applying for full accreditation in July 2012.
PNC’s program is dedicated to following the highest quality of standards
proposed by NACEP. PNC CEP courses that are offered at partnering high
schools have been approved by the university to be of equivalent quality and
rigor to those same courses that are offered on the PNC campus.
These CEP courses are taught at the high
school during the regular school day by the
high school teachers, who have been approved
as CEP instructors by PNC Academic
Department Chairs based on NACEP
standards
Concurrent Tuition
CEP tuition costs are substantially less than regular undergraduate tuition.
The tuition for priority CEP courses, as mandated by the State of Indiana,
is a significant (85%+) savings for students in these CEP courses.
Non-priority CEP courses are offered at a tuition rate that is set by the
Purdue University Board of Trustees in West Lafayette.
Tuition/ Fees 2011-2012
• CEP Priority Courses $25.00 per credit hour (no student fees or books)
• CEP Non-Priority Courses $101.55 per credit hour (no student fees or books)
• PNC On-campus/Undergrad Courses $209.40 per credit hour (plus student
fees, lab fees and books)
Concurrent Admissions
CEP Student Admission Criteria
Students desiring to enroll for CEP courses at Purdue North Central will
need to meet the following requirements:
• Hold a 3.0 grade point average or higher on 4.0 scale
• Receive a score of 1500 (SAT), 21 (ACT) or higher
( A counselor/teacher recommendation may be submitted for borderline
students in any of the above categories.)
Concurrent College Equivalencies
Public institutions within the State of Indiana have established a Core
Transfer Library (CTL) of 85 courses. These courses are transferable to any
public college or university in Indiana if the student has earned a “C” or
above in the course.
The majority of CEP courses satisfy the requirements for the HS Academic
Honors Diploma and are listed on the Core Transfer Library.
For more information about the CTL and how the CEP courses transfer to
schools around the state, visit the Transfer Indiana website

Enhancing Concurrent Enrollment
Creating New Vision to Ensure
Concurrent Student Access and Success
Enhancing Concurrent Enrollment
Student Access and Success is based on the use of
technology/partnerships to create transparency and applicability for
CEP courses:
1.
Electronic student data exchange
a) Database file transfer/interaction
b) Common/PESC XML transcript
2.
Course and degree applicability
a) CEP course listing and descriptions
b) High school to university articulation agreements 1+3
c) PNC degree audits for CEP courses
Electronic Student Data Exchange
1. Database File Transfer/Interaction
Through a partnership with Regional Data Services and Crown Point High School,
some of the Purdue Regional Campuses have been able to use electronic student
data exchange to replace the admissions application, registration,
correct/return class rosters and grade posting processes.
RDS/Crown Point developed the export and Purdue developed the import
process. PNC currently has five RDS high school electronic partners and
will be expanding in the near future.

Electronic Student Data Exchange
1. Common/PESC XML Transcript
a) Common Formatted Transcript (Printable PDF)
b) PESC XML Transcript (secure exchange of student data from
high school into the college environment through common data
standards).
Electronic Student Data Exchange
1. a) Common Formatted Transcript (Printable PDF)
The PDF version that can be printed or stored electronically on a secured
server similar to document imaging . The PDF version will have two phases.
The first phase will incorporate a student’s curricular experience (including
the IN DOE course numbering, AP scores and concurrent enrollment),
standard test scores, diploma track, expected or actual graduation date,
weighted/unweighted GPA, high school College Entrance Examination Board
(CEEB) code and other essential elements needed to represent a student’s
breadth of knowledge and experience.
Electronic Student Data Exchange
1. a) Common Formatted Transcript (Printable PDF)
The second phase of the PDF version will incorporate additional curricular
elements or learning outcomes such as Work Keys and 21st Century Skills
and non-curricular experiences such as Student Activities, Sports, Arts and
the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB). These additional
components will allow employers to better match students to employment
opportunities and university/college admissions offices to be more holistic in
reviewing a student’s admissions application. See attached PDF sample of a
common transcript.
Electronic Student Data Exchange
1. b) Electronic XML Transcript
The second component would call for the adoption of the Postsecondary
Electronic Standards Council (PESC) XML Data Standards. PESC
(http://www.pesc.org/) is a non-profit, community-based, umbrella
association of colleges and universities; college and university systems;
professional and commercial organizations; data, software and service
providers; non-profit organizations and associations; and state and federal
government agencies.
PESC’s mission was to develop electronic (XML and EDI) data standards
that allow information to flow seamlessly from one system to another and
throughout the entire eco-system when and where needed without
compatibility barriers, but in a safe, secure, reliable, and efficient manner.

2. Course applicability and degree audit for CEP courses
a) CEP course listing and descriptions
b) High school to university articulation agreements (1+3)
c) PNC degree audits for CEP courses
Applicability and Degree Audit
2 a) CEP course listing and descriptions
• PNC has developed an approved concurrent class listing with
course descriptions and also a list of CEP courses by high school
http://www.pnc.edu/admissions/DualCreditConcurrentEnrollmentCourseDescriptions.pdf
http://www.pnc.edu/admissions/courses.pdf
Applicability and Degree Audit
2 b) High School to University Articulation Agreements
• Development of 1+3 agreements between high school partners,
targeted PNC program of study and PNC’s general education
program
• Business
• Organizational Leadership and Supervision
• Biology
• PNC General Education Program
Applicability and Degree Audit
2 c) degree audits for CEP courses
CEP credit courses that will satisfy degree requirements/electives
in PNC majors:
1. Currently available as a PDF on our website
(http://www.pnc.edu/admissions/dcprogram_transfer.html)
2. October 2012 web based degree audits (DegreeWorks) for
PNC CEP students
3. In Spring 2013, any CEP (does not have to attend Purdue) can
run degree audit (Web Trekker – DegreeWorks)
