Funding

College Funding

Dual enrollment is funded by the HOPE Grant.  Students in the state of Georgia can take up to 30 hours (approximately ten classes) of approved coursework at eligible institutions.  This funding also covers fees and textbooks.

The state will only pay for a class one time, so if you fail a course (or do not earn a "C" or higher in a prerequisite course), the family is responsible for paying for the course a second time.  For example, English 1101 is a prerequisite for English 1102.  If a student fails or receives a D in 1101, they will need to retake the course at the family's expense.

High School Funding

Students must have exactly six classes to be considered full-time for funding purposes. The only exception is if a student is enrolled in four three-hour college classes in a single semester. That student is considered a full-time college student. Most traditional college students do not exceed four classes a semester.
