Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) is a program that allows 10th-, 11th- and 12th-grade students to earn both high school and college credit while still in high school, through enrollment in and successful completion of college-level courses at eligible participating postsecondary institutions. Most PSEO courses are offered on the campus of the postsecondary institution; some courses are offered online. Each participating college or university sets its own requirements for enrollment into the PSEO courses. Eleventh and twelfth grade students may take PSEO courses on a full- or part-time basis; 10th grade students are allowed to participate in PSEO only if both of the following conditions are met: 1) the student is enrolled in one career or technical course (CTE) offered by an eligible institution; and 2) received a passing score on the eighth grade Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment or another reading assessment accepted by the enrolling postsecondary institution. If a 10th grade alternative pupil receives a grade of “C” or better in the CTE course, the postsecondary institution must allow the student to take additional postsecondary courses.

There is no charge to PSEO students for tuition, books or fees for items that are required to participate in a course. Students must meet the PSEO residency and eligibility requirements and abide by participation limits specified in Minnesota Statutes, section 124D.09. If a school district determines a pupil is not on track to graduate, she/he may continue to participate in PSEO. Funds are available to help pay transportation expenses for qualifying students to participate in PSEO courses on college campuses. Schools must provide information to all students in grades 8-11 and their families by March 1, every year. Students must notify their school by May 30 if they want to participate in PSEO for the following school year. For current information about the PSEO program, visit the Minnesota Department of Education’s Postsecondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) webpage.
