Students Save Time and Money with Dual Enrollment
Students Save Time and Money with Dual Enrollment
October 3, 2019 Kelly Hogan
Parents of high school students are often concerned about the cost of college. Dual Enrollment at Indian River State College (IRSC) provides an opportunity for high school students to begin work on their college degree for free while still in high school, saving time and thousands of dollars in college tuition.
Courses such as College Algebra and English Composition, which cost approximately $600 at a state university can be completed at IRSC with no tuition charge. Courses are offered at convenient times and weighted the same as Honors, Advanced Placement, Advanced International Certificate of Education and International Baccalaureate courses. Credits earned through Dual Enrollment transfer to all Florida public universities and most universities nationally.
Mallory Johnson and David Bayless, both graduates from the Clark Advanced Learning Center, advanced their studies through the dual enrollment program with IRSC.
High school students and their parents are invited to learn more about Dual Enrollment at a free information session Thursday, October 24, at 6 p.m. in the Wolf High-Technology Center at the IRSC Chastain Campus located at 2400 S.E. Salerno Road in Stuart.
Pre-registration is requested and can be done online at www.irsc.edu/event-sign-up. For additional details about the information session or Dual Enrollment at IRSC, contact Emily Mass at emass@irsc.edu or 772-419-5690.
