NAHS Dual Enrollment Program

lhshs-dual-enrollment.webp

Dual Enrolment (DE) is a program allowing eligible 11th and 12th grade students to enroll in a local college, take college classes and earn college credit while working on their HS diploma. The State of GA covers the cost of tuition, mandatory fees and required textbooks for up to 30 semester or 45-quarter hours AND only for courses on the state approved GA Futures Dual Enrollment Course Directory. Students may enter the DE program in either the summer or the fall semester.

Why Dual Enrollment?

  • Gives students a taste of college coursework while they are still enjoying the safe confines of the high school environment.

  • Students earn credits that may be transferable to a 2-year or 4-year college

  • College course credits are applied to both the HS and college transcript

  • College course credits can count to meet HS graduation requirements AND potentially applied towards an Associates or Bachelor’s degree

Benefits of Dual Enrollment:

  • Less time required after HS to finish a college degree

  • Provides students a head start on the college experience

  • Saves students money on tuition

  • May be able to take classes not offered at the HS

  • Remain eligible to participate in local HS athletics, activities and events
