What is the difference between Dual Enrollment and Concurrent/ Annex Enrollment?
A recent study by the National Center for Education Statistics reported that a third of high school students in the 2009 to 2013 cohort took dual-enrollment classes, mostly at their own schools (Shivji, A., & Wilson, S., 2019).
So, what’s the difference between dual enrollment and concurrent enrollment?
Dual Enrollment are courses that count for both high school and college credit. Dual-enrollment courses generally focus on subject areas between high school and college where there is a clear overlap, such as U.S. History, Biology, and Composition are just a few examples. These courses align with their high school requirements that will count towards high school graduation (state standards).
For high school students who have already met their graduation requirements, concurrent enrollment allows them to take college courses in addition to or instead of their high school courses. With concurrent enrollment, schools, parents, and students aren’t concerned about the courses meeting subject standards for high-school courses.
Whether students pursue early college credit through dual-enrollment or concurrent-enrollment programs, the primary benefits are the same.
Taking college-level courses in high school helps prepare students for the academic rigors of college study.
Both dual-enrollment and concurrent-enrollment studies lower the cost of college.
Completing college-credit courses in high school also gives students a more realistic understanding of the academic and social skills that they will need to succeed in college. This helps ensure improved academic performance from the time they begin full-time college studies.
In addition, taking college general education courses while still in high school will likely shorten a student’s time to degree completion.
Finally, dual-enrollment and concurrent-enrollment studies give students a clearer idea of their interests and attitudes, which leads to fewer costly missteps associated with changing majors.
