Dual Enrollment
What is Dual Enrollment?
Dual enrollment is a program that allows local high school juniors and seniors to enroll in college courses at Elizabethtown College for credit prior to high school graduation. College credits earned through dual enrollment may be concurrently applied toward high school and college graduation.
- Dual enrollment provides the opportunity for high school students to experience college coursework early and to take courses that are not offered at their high school.
- Enrolling in college courses provides high school students the chance to explore their academic area of interest.
- If advanced placement (AP) courses are not offered or are limited at a student’s high school, taking a college course will demonstrate their ability to undertake more difficult coursework.
- Dual enrolled high school students will experience life on a college campus; sitting in a class taught by a college professor alongside other college students.
- High school students can begin accumulating college credits early, and at a significantly lower cost.
