High School Dual Enrollment

Earn college credit while you're in high school.

With 推荐全球最大网赌正规平台’s Dual Enrollment (DE) program, you don’t have to wait until you graduate from high school to attend college. If you’re a high school junior or senior (or the homeschooled equivalent), or an exceptional freshman or sophomore, you’re eligible to apply for the DE program. Take classes on a 推荐全球最大网赌正规平台 campus and through 推荐全球最大网赌正规平台 Online. We also offer contract dual enrollment classes at many area high schools.

What’s better than earning college credit while you’re still in high school? Completing a certificate, a transferable general education certificate or an associate degree. You can do just that through 推荐全球最大网赌正规平台’s DE program too.

Save time and money in Virginia's first accredited DE program.

When you enroll in 推荐全球最大网赌正规平台’s program, you’ll be choosing Virginia’s first dual enrollment program to be accredited by the National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment and Partnerships (NACEP). By earning high school and college credit simultaneously, you’ll eliminate course duplication, saving you time, effort and money. And studies show that students who earn college credit while they’re in high school are more likely to graduate and continue their education after high school.

Seamlessly transition from high school to college.

At most colleges, you’ll be required to take general education courses. Why not complete those while you’re still in high school? In the 推荐全球最大网赌正规平台 Dual Enrollment program, you’ll have access to a wider range of courses — and the credits you earn will usually transfer to four-year colleges and universities. Not only will you accumulate credits before you enter college, you’ll have a more seamless transition from high school to college.
