Dual Enrollment

Dual Enrollment at Pine Ridge High School

Dual Enrollment allows eligible middle and high school students to take college-level courses while still enrolled in school—earning both high school and college credit at the same time. This is an excellent opportunity for students to accelerate their education and reduce the overall cost of a college degree or technical certificate.

Key Benefits:

  • Earn college credit and high school credit simultaneously

  • No cost for tuition, registration, lab fees, or textbooks

  • Courses are weighted equally with other advanced programs (e.g., AP, AICE)

  • Available during the school day, after school, or during the summer

  • Offered through all 28 Florida public community colleges and select state universities
