TUHSD Success Coaching

Graduate High School with a College Degree

Dual enrollment isn't just about saving money. It's strategic planning. Starting now, your student could graduate with a college degree AND a high school diploma, ready to begin as a Sophomore or higher in university. This website will help you understand what dual enrollment is, how college credits transfer, and the steps to start planning your academic goals.

The Problem

Many Arizona families miss out on dual enrollment simply because the process can feel complex to navigate on their own. School counselors work hard to support hundreds of students every day, which means long-term, step-by-step college planning often gets left to trial and error. Without dedicated guidance early on, valuable time and savings slip away.

The Opportunity

What if your student could:

✓ Graduate high school with a college degree

✓ Save $15,000-60,000 on college tuition

✓ Start university as a late sophomore (not a freshman)

✓ Be more competitive for scholarships and top colleges

The same four years. A completely different outcome.

What I do

I'm a Rio Salado Success Coach. My job is to help Arizona families understand dual enrollment and build a strategic 4-year pathway for their student. Not generic advice. Not college jargon. Strategic planning specific to YOUR student's goals.

Q: Is this only for honor students?

A: No. Dual enrollment is flexible. Whether your student is honors-level or on-level, we build a realistic path. Some do 1 college class per year, some do 3. We customize.

Q: How much does it cost?

A: A 3-credit Rio Salado College class costs $291 ($97 per credit hour). The same class at ASU or the University of Arizona costs $1,700. That's $1,400 saved per class. My guidance is an included service and resource with Rio Salado Early College Program.
