Dual Enrollment Program Information for High School Students
Dual Enrollment Program offers two types of courses for high school students: Early College Program for preselected rising 9th graders aiming for an Associates of Arts degree, and traditional college courses for high school students with a 3.0 GPA or higher. Students must handle college-level academic work independently and can participate in extracurricular activities. The program requires students to be responsible for their academic schedules, transportation, and communications with the college. Different from Advanced Placement courses, Dual Enrollment courses appear on both high school and college transcripts, impacting scholarship eligibility.
