| What is Dual Enrollment?
The Dual Enrollment
Program is an accelerated program that allows qualified
students to fulfill high school graduation requirements
while simultaneously gaining college or vocational credits
toward a certificate, diploma or a college degree.
Los Angeles City College offers a variety of college courses
that are conveniently offered at our local high schools.
Students and counselors should note these classes should
be taken by students ready for college level work.
Our goal is to allow high school
students exposure to college level curriculum and prepare
them for post secondary education. Research has shown us
that Dual Enrollment classes can be used effectively to
promote post secondary education and success, expand rigor
and breath of high school curriculum, and provide access
to challenging, college preparatory curriculum to students
who might otherwise have been shut out of such curriculum
through the traditional high school system. Classes are
open to LACC students who are willing to travel to the local
high school.
Dual Enrollment classes are
scheduled through the LACC administration by request of
the high school principal or college counselor. Applications
are available for high school staff by contacting Harley
Haas at haasht2@lacitycollege.edu.
