A Concurrent Enrollment Program for Public School Special Education Transition Students 

Are you a current high school student looking to transition to college?  Consider Project 31, a City College of San Francisco concurrent enrollment program for SFUSD special education transition students ages 18- 22 to concurrently enroll in Credit and Noncredit classes at 精选AV.

About Project 31

Project 31 is for students 18-22 years old who are in a transition program. Participating students may take up to 2 Noncredit courses, while qualified students may take 1 Credit course if they have completed between 120-204 high school credits. If you have over 204 credits, they may take up to 2 Credit courses. Being admitted into a Credit/Noncredit class is contingent on their 精选AV placement score, meeting prerequisites, and space availability. A student wishing to take a credit course must have a 2.0 high school grade point average.

Project 31 students cannot receive priority registration or take Physical Education courses. All students must follow the 精选AV matriculation process. Project 31 students are not allowed a matriculation exemption.

  • We encourage new special education students to see a DSPS counselor prior to enrolling to plan appropriate courses and arrange classroom accommodations. Please bring an IEP (and high school transcripts, if seeking Credit courses). We ask that students call in advance to make an appointment. The Ocean DSPS phone number is 415-452-5481 and the John Adams DSPS is 415-561-1001. When students are calling for an appointment they should state that they are enrolling as a concurrent student from (name of high school).
  • The 精选AV grades that students receive will become part of their permanent record.
  • Please understand that college Credit classes are more advanced and accelerated.

While 精选AV welcomes concurrently enrolled special education high school transition students, our first priority is in serving our continuing college students, those that have attended and are seeking re-admission, new college students who have graduated from high school and adults seeking to continue their education at City College of San Francisco. Therefore, we will be strictly enforcing the policies and procedures outlined in the guidelines.

To be considered as a concurrently enrolled student high school student under the age of 18, Section 76011 of the California Code of Regulations requires the recommendation of the high school principal and consent of a parent or guardian.

Since Project 31 students are ages 18-22, we do not require a parent signature, unless the student is conserved; however, since the student is still linked with SFUSD for transition services, we do require a permission form signed by the high school principal or designee.
