Dual Enrollment

These courses are intended for high school students who have experienced a high level of academic success and may also be offered to the community at large.  The benefits of successful high school students taking college credit are many:

• Students can experience first-hand college-level course work.  They have the opportunity to collaborate with other college students and faculty and are expected to perform at the college level.  This experience can be of value to those who are unsure about entering college or for those who may lack self-confidence in their abilities.

• Students can accrue college credit while still in high school.  A good student could accumulate up to twelve college credits upon graduation from high school.  This could prove to be very cost-effective in terms of the long term costs of getting a college education. 

• The opportunity to earn college credit may cause certain accelerated students to decline the option of completing high school a semester early to pursue their college education.  This gives the student the opportunity to complete his/her senior year while taking college credit.  The student does not miss out on the many school activities which are planned during the spring semester of the senior high school year. 

The cost for students in our neighboring seven county Indiana region and in Illinois is available here.  This rate applies to all of the schools affiliated with I.D.E.A.L. (Indiana Distance Education Access to Learning).

*DACC offers a Credit Transfer Money Back Guarantee.  The Transfer Guarantee promises that any course taken and approved by DACC will transfer to the college or university that the student has selected.  If a course which has been approved does not transfer, the College will refund the tuition and fees for the course.
