Participation in dual enrollment allows students to earn high school and college credit simultaneously; thus, decreasing students’ time to complete a college degree and saving them tuition costs.  \nHow does dual enrollment differ from Advanced Placement (AP) courses and International Baccalaureate (IB) courses?  \nDual enrollment courses do not require an additional test to receive college credit. AP courses culminate with an AP exam, and depending on their exam scores, students may receive college credit for AP courses. Additionally, while high schoolteachers teach AP courses, college professors traditionally teach dual enrollment courses.1  \nIB is primarily an international program offering a challenging and diverse education at schools authorized as IB World Schools. To receive an IB Diploma, students must take a standard set of courses and exams during their junior and senior high school years. Students may receive college credit for IB courses depending on their exam scores.2  \nWhat are the benefits of DuE courses?  \nThere are several positive outcomes for students when they enroll in DuE courses. These positive outcomes include increased highschool completion rates, higher rates of college enrollment, higher rates of college degree completion, and shorter average time spent earning a bachelor’s degree.3  \nHow can students enroll in DuE courses?  \nThere are various ways students can enroll in DuE courses. Highschool students may independently go to their local community college and enroll in a course. If their high school has arranged DuE courses, students may take them with the general population on the community college campus or with their peers on their high school campus after school or during regular school hours. Students and families must speak with their academic counselors to learn about dual enrollment opportunities at their schools.  \nWhat types of DuE programs are available?  \nCollege and Career Access Partnership (CCAP) agreements are formal partnerships made between K-12 and community college districts under state legislation. CCAP courses are meant to provide a pathway to college for students who stand to benefit from DuE, as well as reduce barriers for K-12 and community college districts.  \nMemorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreements are between K-12 school districts and community colleges, and they are not under the authority of state legislation, allowing districts to operate outside of CCAP partnership agreements. Under these agreements, courses may have a particular focus or structure and serve specific students.  \nEarly College High Schools (ECHS) and Middle College High Schools (MCHS) are collaborations between a high school anda community college, allowing students to earn college units through dual enrollment courses integrated into the school day. Students graduate from high school with up to two years of community college-level coursework, equivalent to an associate degree. MCHS dual enrollment programs are opportunities for atpromise youth who may not have been “tracked” for college.  \nWith whom should students and families connect to learn more about DuE?  \nStudents should begin by speaking with their high school academic counselor or college counselor, if available, to learn about dual enrollment and ask about DuE courses arranged by the highschool campus. If students’ academic counselors cannot provide information related to DuE, students and families should connect with a school administrator or dual enrollment coordinator at the district office or inquire with their local community.  \n1.
