Benefits of Dual Enrollment Increasing the number of underserved
students who are ready for college. Providing realistic information to high
school students about the skills they need for college. (Most high school graduates have no idea they won’t be able to enroll in a college class but need remediation courses before they begin.)

Creating a smoother transition for students and feedback from K-12 to postsecondary systems. (Hoffman, Vargas & Santos, 2009).

dismal -Nationally less than 50% of students enrolled in college will earn an associate degree within three years or a bachelor’s degree within six years.
Drop-out rate alarming! - 25% of full-time freshman at four-year institutions drop out and 39% of the freshmen at two-year institutions do not return the following fall. The rates are even worse for part-time students (Karp, 2012).
