CCA connects parents and students to dual enrollment courses from accredited colleges that give the student the opportunity to complete college credits during their high school years. While dual enrollment is a fabulous opportunity to earn college credit while completing high school transcript requirements, it is not for every student. Colleges do not require students to complete any college level classes to apply for admissions or scholarships.
Our experienced advisors are ready to help you navigate the Tennessee Dual Enrollment Grant process and other cost effective dual enrollment opportunities.
