[quote=Anonymous]DeMatha offers over 20 dual enrollment courses  taught by DeMatha faculty through a partnership with Seton Hill University. These courses  are generally advanced courses where students have the option to dual enroll at Seton Hill for a nominal fee (I think is $200 per course) and if they get a C or better that can earn college credit.

I think it's a pretty good model because the courses are taught by DeMatha, and they don't have leave campus or take an online course, and these are course that they'd be taking anyway if they were on an honors or advanced track.

With respect to credit transfer, we haven't gotten there yet with our DS, but we've seen other families have a lot of success with transferring credits from this approach. It's a good way to save money on college tuition down the line if you can make the transfer credits work at the receiving institution.

However, the way I see it, it looks good on a college application to be able to show you've applied yourself by taking as many dual enrollment courses as possible whether they transfer or not. [/quote]
