Albany Technical College Dual Enrollment

Albany Technical College's Dual Enrollment Program allows qualified high school students to maximize their education and career training by taking courses that earn college and high school credit at the same time! Under Dual Enrollment, students may take academic core courses that can transfer to TCSG colleges or USG colleges and universities. Students may also take occupational and career courses that can help jump start a career. Students who are in the 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grades, attend a participating Georgia high school or an approved home study program may qualify to take college-level courses under the Dual Enrollment Program.

The program is offered during all academic semesters - Fall, Spring, and Summer. Georgia Student Finance Commission requires that a Dual Enrollment High School/Home Study Program Participation Agreement be on file for each high school/home study program in order for students from that high school/home study program to participate in the Dual Enrollment program. Full tuition and most fees and textbook costs are covered.

Essential 18 College Credit Hours

Albany Technical College is proud to announce a new initiative called the "Essential 18," which aims to make dual enrollment even more beneficial for our students. Under this program, we are encouraging all high schools within our service delivery area to sign up students for a minimum of 18 college credit hours. By doing so, we hope to increase the benefits of dual enrollment for every eligible student with at least a 2.0-grade point average, regardless of their future academic or career ambitions.
