Getting an early start on your college education can definitely pay off later on, and we’re here to help you get that early start. In fact, studies show that students experience greater academic success in college when they complete dual enrollment courses in high school.
When you take dual enrollment classes, you’ll be earning high school and college credits at the same time. Plus, you’ll gain the experience of being a college student. CGCC partners with East Valley high schools to offer dual enrollment credit for academic and occupational classes. The courses are taught on high school campuses by college-approved high school teachers and can be counted toward high school graduation requirements.
The credits you earn may transfer to another community college or university, and qualifying students may even be eligible to receive tuition assistance based on financial need.
Dual enrollment is open to high school juniors and seniors, and in some instances, freshmen and sophomores may be eligible to enroll. Explore our available dual enrollment opportunities today.
