DUAL ENROLLMENT

 

Dual enrollment in local colleges and universities has had a major role in high school academic planning since its inception in Florida in 1996. Students in grades 6-12 are allowed to dual enroll in the state of Florida. Many CIAS junior and senior students have participated in various dual enrollment opportunities since 1997. These include, but are not limited to, dual enrollment at Pensacola Junior/State College, the University of West Florida, George Stone Technical Center, Faulkner State College, Jefferson Davis Community College, Liberty University, and Southeastern University. Please contact Mary Beth Jones at the CIAS office for more information regarding dual enrollment opportunities.

 

Note: As of June 2014, due to changes in the Florida laws/statutes, dual enrollment is no longer offered with free tuition to students enrolled in private schools. Each school must pay a certain monetary amount per credit hour for all classes that their students take as dual enrolled high school students. Sadly, CIAS now has to pass these fees along to students and their families since we do not collect large monthly tuition fees like other private schools. The college/university bills CIAS, and CIAS pays them with the funds that parents have pre-paid. Each term/semester's tuition is due by the end of September and January, respectively.
