FAQs

What is "dual enrollment"?

What is Dual Enrollment?

Dual enrollment refers to a program that allows high school students to enroll in college-level courses and earn credits that count towards both their high school diploma and future college degree. This unique opportunity enables students to experience college-level academics while still in high school, providing them with a head start on their college education.

Dual Advisors offers several benefits, including:

  • Advanced Learning: Students gain exposure to college-level coursework, challenging them academically and preparing them for the rigors of higher education.

Transferring credits

Our coursework is accredited by the top regional and national standards. It is transcribed by a University or College and supported by professors who meets these standards. Generally, these credits will transfer to your selected university or college just like any other on-campus credits, PSEO, or AP coursework. Moreover, our Dual Advisors can proactively communicate with the admissions department at your chosen university to ensure that the credits are equivalent and transferable.

Course Equivalencies

Each credit-granting university has their own grading scale. Some consider everything above a 90% to be an A, while some universities consider 90-92% to be an A-, for example.

Age & identification requirements

Dual credit coursework is available for students who are at least 13 years old. To receive transferable college credit for this course, Dual Advisors and its partners will need to verify your identity using a government-issued or school-issued photo ID. Make sure to have your ID ready for the proctored mid-term and final examinations, as well as when applying for a transcript. You can start studying for this course without the appropriate identification, but it is necessary to have a government-issued or school-issued photo ID before scheduling the mid-term exam.

Although you can complete the course as quickly as you like, keep in mind that you have up to a full calendar year from registration to successfully finish the course.

Drop date & refund policy

Request a Transcript

Once you have successfully finished the course and obtained a passing grade, you have the opportunity to request an official transcript from our partnered university. Usually, the transcript can be requested for a small additional fee, typically between $20-$50 each. This transcript can be applied towards a future degree program at the partnering institution, or it can be transferred to another college or university of your choice. To gain clarity on how these credits can be utilized, we suggest contacting the admissions office at the specific educational institution you plan on attending. In case you have additional questions, Dual Advisors are available to provide definitions, tips, and assist with your interactions.

Earning an Associates Degree

By combining the pursuit of a college Associates degree with high school graduation, students can seize an exceptional opportunity. This simultaneous achievement is not only possible but also actively encouraged. Opting for an online accelerated degrees program ensures that completion can be accomplished within a year, catering to individuals who value efficiency. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that many dual credit students opt for a more flexible timeline of 2-3 years to ensure a balanced workload. Engaging with Dual Advisors will provide valuable insights into this possibility and how it aligns with personal goals.
