NAHS Dual Enrollment Program

Dual Enrolment (DE) is a program allowing eligible 11th and 12th grade students to enroll in a local college, take college classes and earn college credit while working on their HS diploma. The State of GA covers the cost of tuition, mandatory fees and required textbooks for up to 30 semester or 45-quarter hours AND only for courses on the state approved GA Futures Dual Enrollment Course Directory. Students may enter the DE program in either the summer or the fall semester.
