Why A Dual Enrollment Application?

Because you told us to!

• Requests from many colleges & districts since 2021

• Response to Vision 2030 goals

  • Find new pathways for future learners

  • Continue doing what works - Fix what doesn’t work - Create what’s missing

Our system needs a streamlined path for future learners

• Dual Enrollment students get lost in the current standard application

• Select the wrong option from a long list

• Guess at answers to questions that don’t apply to them

• Why am I being asked this question?

Our students want a better application experience

• Guide them to the right options so that they don’t miss an opportunity for a head start on their educational and career goals

• Give them confidence that they CAN succeed at college (even before they start classes)

• Encourage them to continue at their CCC college after high-school graduation
  
  

Application Goal
