When can one enroll in Kirkwood HSDL courses?

Kirkwood offers flexible enrollment to students taking their courses.  This means that a student may sign up for a course any day that the HSDL office is open.  From the time the registration is processed, a student is allowed to take up to four calendar months to complete the course.  However, because we offer flexible enrollment, a student may start the course on the first of October and be finished with it by November 15th.  Once the student finishes that course, he/she may enroll in another course immediately.

Where can one enroll in Kirkwood HSDL courses?

Students may call the HSDL office at 319-784-1517 to schedule a same-day appointment if they want to start immediately.  Additionally, there are three other easy ways to submit a registration.  School administrators or parents may mail the registration form and payment to Kirkwood HSDL.  For faster service, parents or administrators may email it, or fax it the HSDL office and then call with a Visa, Master Card, or Discover Card payment.

Why would one enroll in Kirkwood HSDL courses?

Students around the state of Iowa enroll in Kirkwood HSDL courses for a variety of reasons.  One reason may be that a student failed a course and he/she needs to make up the credit for graduation. Another reason may be that a student would like to graduate early and he/she needs the credit to advance.  A final reason may be that a student goes to a very small school and Spanish and government are offered at the same time, so he/she can only take one course at school.
