What’s a CE? If it college enrollment, then it’s for transfer, not admission as a freshman.[/quote]

It's Concurrent Enrollment - instead of doing DE at a high school; you drive to a local school like: GMU and take classes there. [/quote]

Concurrent or dual enrollment is the same. It doesn’t matter where the class is taken. It means the student is enrolled at two institutions, the high school and the (community) college. There are no high school only DE classes. If a high school offers advanced classes like Multivariable, that’s just a high school advanced class not a DE class, unless they have an agreement with a college to bring an instructor on campus and register students at the college at the same time.[/quote]

This is largely incorrect info.[/quote]

What is specifically incorect about it?[/quote]

Everything in bold is wrong:

[b]There are no high school only DE classes.[/b][b] If a high school offers advanced classes like Multivariable, that’s just a high school advanced class not a DE class, unless they have an agreement with a college to bring an instructor on campus and register students at the college at the same time.[/b]

Concurrent enrollment is not the same as dual enrollment. It can absolutely matter where the class is taken. Some schools give more credibility (weight) to a course taken at the CC campus versus in a HS. Also, some schools will not grant credit for a DE course taken in a HS but will for a course taken on a CC campus.

There are absolutely HS only DE courses and they are taught by HS district employees NOT by the CC bringing an instructor into the HS. Most are taught by HS teachers who have approval from the CC that they can teach the course.

You know very little about the difference and should not post about it at all.

Ok, I understand now, you are actually an idiot. At least bother to do a quick google search before you embarrass yourself needlessly.

It’s in the name, dual mean two, concurrent means at the same time.

Please, name the school that differentiate credit based on where the class is taken, high school or community college.

Also, I’d like to see an example of a dual enrollment class, taught by a high school employee at the high school, without the involvement of another educational institution. At the minimum they need to have an agreement with the community college to earn college (not high school) credit. Students will get two transcripts, one from the high school and one from the community college, which they submit to the university they will apply to. The transcripts don’t mention where the class was taken, just the course name and grade.
