Dual Enrollment
Dual enrollment gives high school students the opportunity to earn college credits while meeting the requirements for high school graduation. College credits earned through dual enrollment can be applied toward graduation at Dabney S. Lancaster Community College and most may be transferred to another college or university. We invite all eligible students to consider taking DSLCC courses through our dual enrollment program. Read more about the advantages dual enrollment offers high school students.
Who Can Enroll?
High school juniors and seniors (generally age 16 and above) who are prepared for the demands of college-level course work are eligible to enroll by completing the following steps:
- Obtain permission from parent/guardian, guidance counselor, and high school principal
- Complete the College's placement testing process, and
- Get accepted for admission by DSLCC!
What are the Financial Benefits of Dual Enrollment?
The low cost of community college tuition will result in substantial savings later.
Students should check to see if their school offers any tuition assistance program for dual enrollment.
How are Dual Enrollment Courses Offered?
DSLCC provides dual enrollment opportunities in a variety of formats for eligible students. With permission, students may enroll in day or evening classes scheduled at the College or off-campus locations. Some dual enrollment courses are offered exclusively for students at their home school. Other course formats are continually being added to expand services to students, such as distance learning options.
What are the Benefits of Dual Enrollment for High School Students?
- More course options for students
