High School Programs
High School Dual Enrollment
What is this program?
Basically, and simply said, it is an amazing opportunity for you to earn college credit and high school credit at the same time for the same course. For instance, instead of taking English at your high school, you can take Fundamentals of Composition I (EN101) at Manor College. You will receive 3 college credits for this course from Manor plus credit for your senior English class at your High School. You may take from one to three courses each semester FOR FREE.

Who pays for this?
The participating school districts are providing the funds for this special program with Manor College.
What is the benefit?
This is an opportunity that no eligible student should reject. Essentially, it is free tuition for college credit taken during your senior year of high school. This allows a student to accrue college credit that will transfer to Manor or any other college or university.
This will save you valuable time and money once you graduate from high school and begin college. You will have the potential to earn an Associates Degree or a Baccalaureate Degree in less time.
Additionally, this program will allow you the opportunity to take courses related to a career you may be interested in, but somewhat unsure about entering.
For instance, if you are interested in becoming an attorney, you may take a course such as “Critical Thinking” or “Intro to Law.” If you’re interested in the field of medicine, then take “Survey of Anatomy and Physiology.” If you’re interested in a business course, then take “Accounting” or “Intro to Business” and so on.
Manor College finds this as an excellent approach to exploring careers.
