Dual Enrollment Program

The Dual Enrollment Program is for students classified as high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors at accredited public or private high schools in the state of Georgia and is operated in all school terms. The program allows students to pursue degree-level or technical certificates of credit postsecondary study at approved public and private colleges and technical colleges while receiving dual high school and college credit for courses successfully completed. Courses pursued under this program must come from the approved course directory which is supplied to high school counselors in the state. 

At public colleges, the program provides funding for tuition; in keeping with the benefits provided by the HOPE program. Transportation and other expenses are the responsibility of the student, including tuition and other expenses for non-core courses, if any are taken. Credit hours paid by the Dual Enrollment Program for the student will not count towards the limit of postsecondary hours paid for by the HOPE Program. Additional requirements or restrictions for participating in this program may be imposed by the high school.
