The Alabama Community College System (ACCS) recently announced that the community colleges would be able to begin utilizing our Dual Enrollment Funding to cover more general education classes for our dual enrolled students.

What does this mean for students?   It means that any student that might want to pursue an academic associate’s Degree while in high school or those you might wish to complete more general studies academic classes will be able to take advantage of this opportunity as well.

Through the Alabama Transfers agreement, these academic courses will quickly transfer to four-year colleges/university across the state after graduating from high school.
