Early Post Secondary Opportunities 

Early Postsecondary Opportunities (EPSOs) provide students with the opportunity to earn college credit while in high school, develop the confidence and skills necessary for success in postsecondary, make informed postsecondary and career decisions, and decrease the time and cost of completing a certificate or degree. CMCSS opportunities include: Advanced Placement, joint or dual enrollment, capstone industry certifications, and statewide dual credit. Each high school offers a variety of opportunities. Juniors and Seniors who meet the college admissions requirements have the opportunity to begin post-secondary education. Please note that a three credit hour  course of college is equal to one semester of high school credit.  Dual enrollment students at public institutions may qualify for state dual-enrollment grants to help with the cost of tuition, for more information visit the tn.gov website linked here.
