[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's very good for lower income families who cannot afford 4 years of college easily. It also allows you to go in as a transfer student vs. freshman. There are advantages and we consider it but heard too many negative things.[/quote] This is actually not always true - dual enrollment students are often still considered freshman. Umd, for example, only considers dual enrollment students transfers if they complete additional college credits post high school graduation. [/quote] It makes sense that serious universities would take DE students with a grain of salt, considering the academic level of DE.[/quote] Define “serious universities.” UMD, UVa, W&M, UNC and the UC schools all accept community college transfer students, and accept their credits as meeting specific graduation requirements, not just random electives.[/quote]
