Understanding Dual Enrollment
What is dual enrollment?

high school students to:
– Get a head start on college
– Explore an interest
– Fulfill a high school requirement and
earn college credit simultaneously
• Classes taught by SCC instructors
• Eligibility: students from 9th to 12th
grade - no residency requirement
Where are the classes offered?
• Students may take classes at the
high school after the school day
(if offered)
• Students may also take classes
at the Santiago Canyon College
(SCC) campus or via Distance
Learning (online)
Why should I take dual enrollment classes? Dual Enrollment is associated with: • Higher rates of high school completion • Direct enrollment in college after high school • Improving the likelihood of completing a college degree or certificate

counselor to determine which
courses will meet your high
school requirements

start an educational plan
outlining courses you will need
for your college degree and
certificate requirementsHow much studying time should I plan for?

reading, studying, completing
homework, extra curricular
activities, and working

time, allow two hours of outside
homework time:
