Do you know a high schooler who is eager to earn some college credit? KMBC is offering dual enrollment courses both online and on campus. These classes allow teenagers to begin their college education early. There are many benefits to taking these courses while still in high school.
Starting college early gives students a great advantage, as the classes allow them to experience college-level work, so they can get a better idea of what to expect from future courses. Those who participate in dual enrollment courses can also complete part of their degree before attending college full time, enabling them to save money on school expenses, since they may not have to pay for room and board as long. Furthermore, the student saves time and energy because courses fulfill both high school and college requirements.
Note: “-Online” indicates pre-recorded online option is available. Please look at the schedule for dates and times of live classes.
