High School Dual Enrollment
Earn college credit while you're still in high school!We’re excited that you are making this step—choosing a college is one of the most important decisions you will make!
Welch College offers the opportunity for high school juniors and seniors to be dually enrolled in selected college courses before their high school graduation. These college credits can be simultaneously applied toward high school and college graduation.
Dual Enrollment Eligibility
To qualify to be dually enrolled, students must meet the following Welch College criteria:
- be classified as an 11th or 12th grader by your high school or umbrella school.
- provide a statement of good standing and transcript (with GPA) from your high school or umbrella school.
- provide an official ACT, SAT, or CLT score
- meet the Welch College Admissions requirements for DE
Students will be held to the same level of expectations as all college students taking the same course(s).
Financial Information
The state of Tennessee makes DE courses affordable for TN students through the Dual Enrollment Grant.
The Dual Enrollment Grant program is defined as a grant for study at an eligible postsecondary institution that is funded from net proceeds of the state lottery and awarded to students who are attending an eligible high school and who are also enrolled in college courses at eligible postsecondary institutions for which they will receive college credit.
