The value of taking Dual Enrollment courses
Save Time - students earn high school credit and college credit for the same course
Fullfill Requirements - satisfy requirements for the Texas high school graduation performance acknowledgments and begin or complete Texas College Core Curriculum requirements
Transferability - Academic Dual Enrollment courses will transfer with a grade C or higher to any Texas public colleges and universities
Save Money - Students that take Dual Enrollment courses on their high school campus save up to 75% in tuition
Dual Enrollment students need to:
- be highly motivated
- be able to stick to a goal
- make above average grades
- possess good study habits
- understand that the amount of work necessary to succeed in college courses will be greater than that of high school courses
- be aware that dual credit courses become a part of a student's permanent college transcript

Dual Degree Opportunity
To help students reach their educational goals in a timely manner, local ISD's and Alvin Community College offers qualified students the opportunity to earn a high school diploma and an Associates of Arts Degree in General Studies at the same time. The Dual Degree program is a rigorous program that will require extra time and dedication. Interested students should contact their high school counselor or ACC Advisor for more information and to develop a degree plan.
