Is it possible that getting high school kids--even those who considered "high risk"--into college courses as part of a dual enrollment program could increase their chances of
success and improve school retention efforts? That's the conclusion of a recent study on the topic.
The report concluded that "there is evidence that dual enrollment helps a wide range of students to be more successful in college. Students in these programs
experience themselves as real college students and gain confidence and skills that can help them to excel academically."
