Course Suggestions for Early College

Taking college courses while still completing a high school diploma gives students a head start on their college journey. Highland Community College offers dual enrollment students the chance to explore classes that may not be available at their high school. Whether earning an HCC degree or certificate, preparing to transfer after high school, or simply experiencing college life, dual enrollment provides valuable lessons for students and their families. Students can begin courses after their freshman year.
