    1. Students must be enroll and be admitted to Rio Salado College by visiting: https://www.riosalado.edu/start-rio/early-college/dual-enrollment 
      *New this year: There is no longer a "save progress" button, which means that students/families are encouraged to fully complete this application in one-sitting and have 45 minutes to do so.
    2. Students must submit a current school photo ID AND one of the following:
        • a copy of their birth certificate
        • a copy of their passport
        • a copy of their Arizona driver's licence or Arizona state issued ID

      *Students can access their transcript with their GPA in StudentVue under Documents

      *The login information for this application is the student's full MEID@maricopa.edu and the password they created for their student account.
    6. Payment must either be paid in full or students can set up a monthly payment plan. Students can also apply for Tuition Assistance based on specific criteria on a first come, first served basis. 
      *Students must be enrolled with Rio Salado College before they can apply for Tuition Assistance.
