Dual Enrollment

College in High School, FREE!

At OUSD our students can enroll in college courses taught by MiraCosta College professors. Classes are available at OHS, online or at MiraCosta College. This allows students to get a head start on their future by building their college transcripts before they graduate high school. Unlike AP courses, no exams outside of class are needed to receive college credit, just earn a passing grade in the course.     

Courses include: 

  • Intro to Business
  • Entrepreneurship & Small Business Management
  • Pre-Calculus 1: College Algebra
  • Pre-Calculus 2: Trigonometry and Analytic Geometry
  • Psychology of Personal Growth
  • Intro to Sociology
  • Intro to Film
  • Intro to Curriculum in Early Childhood

Here is the full list of courses offered.
