What is Dual Enrollment

The Dual Enrollment program is an opportunity for qualified high school students to earn college credits. The student is “dually” enrolled in high school and in college. The student can be a full time or part time college student.��The student earns college credits as well as high school credits needed for graduation.

Accelerated Career Diploma offers qualified students a unique path to a high school diploma and a Technical Diploma, Associate Degree, or 2 Technical Certificates in a specific career pathway from a Technical College.

How does grading work?

If the student fails a class, it could jeopardize eligibility or even graduation!

Pros and Cons

High School	College
In high school, parents or high school teachers might remind you of assignments, help you prioritize, or offer support if needed.	In college, you're responsible for managing deadlines and reaching out to professors when needed—check-ins are rare.
In high school, you may not need to study frequently, and it's often possible to complete assignments at the last minute and still earn a good grade.	College courses often require 2–3 hours of study per day each—more time and effort than high school work.
In high school, early low test scores often have little impact—homework, classwork, and extra credit can boost your final grade.	College exams are few, cover large amounts of material, and rarely shift for outside events. They carry significant weight in your final grade, with limited chances for extra credit.
In high school, attendance is strictly monitored and usually mandatory. If a teacher is absent, a substitute typically steps in to ensure the class continues as scheduled.	Attendance may not be required in every class, but missing it can hurt your grade and performance. If class is canceled, it usually just resumes at the next scheduled time.
In high school, students schedules are created for them. Students are normally in school up to seven hours a day Monday -Friday.	College schedules are flexible. You may have long breaks or days off, with class time varying per week.
