Dual Enrollment

Dual Enrollment refers to various programs authorized by the State of Georgia that allow students in grades 10-12 to earn high school and college credit at the same time. Utilizing these programs allows students the opportunity to challenge themselves and get ahead in pursuing their long-term academic and career goals. Most of the programs require that students complete an application process. For more information, please read through the following information or call your student's counselor.
