Dual enrollment is at the heart of what we do at Mountainside. As a middle college student, you take real Folsom Lake College classes while you finish high school, and you can graduate with transferable college units, an associate degree, or both. I'll help you plan which classes to take, get through the FLC enrollment steps, and stay on track each semester.

Step by Step
How to Enroll at Folsom Lake College
Apply to FLC
Create an OpenCCC account with a personal email (not your school email) and complete the FLC application. Choose "enrolling in high school and college at the same time."
Set up eServices and your Los Rios Gmail
You'll get a Los Rios ID that starts with a "W" (it can take up to 24 hours to show up). Create your password.
Meet with me
We'll talk through which classes make sense for you and how they fit your pathway.
Submit the Special Admit Form
Fill out the Special Admit Form with your parent/guardian's contact info and mine. I'll get an email to approve it.
Watch your email
Allow up to five business days after I approve your form for confirmation from FLC.
Pay any remaining fees
Tuition is waived, but you're responsible for other fees. You can opt out of the student representation fee.
Already an FLC student? Skip the application and just submit the Supplemental Enrollment Form in eServices each semester.
Your Options
CCAP and Non-CCAP Classes
CCAP Classes
College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) classes are FLC courses offered through a partnership with our school, just for high school students. You earn college credit alongside classmates from Mountainside.
Non-CCAP Classes
Regular FLC classes open to everyone. You sit alongside college students, and you can choose from the full FLC schedule.
You can take whichever classes fit your schedule and your path. Our school may require a few CCAP classes during your high school years, and I'll help you plan for them.

From Me to You
Tips for Succeeding in College Classes
● Your FLC grades go on a permanent college transcript, so pick a load you can handle.
● Check your Los Rios Gmail and Canvas often. Professors communicate there, not through me.
● Know the add and drop deadlines for each class.
● Go to office hours. Professors want to help you.
● Use FLC's tutoring and library. You have full access as a student.
● If you start to struggle, come see me early. We have more options before a deadline than after.
Have an IEP or 504 plan?
Your plan doesn't carry over to your FLC classes. Accommodations at FLC go through DSPS (Disability Support Programs & Services). Come see me and I'll help you get started.
