Dual Enrollment

with

Liberty University Online Academy

2018-2019

Carroll Christian has reached an agreement with Liberty University (LU) online to start a dual

enrollment program at CCS. This is an exciting opportunity for CCS juniors and seniors to take

classes through LU that will earn credits that will not only fulfill high school requirements but

will also go toward meeting college requirements.

The cost of college tuition adds up quickly. Imagine getting a number of college classes out to

the way while still in high school. What if your child could even complete an entire year of

college before ever leaving high school? You would save not only on tuition costs but,

ultimately, room and board, as well.

The benefit of earning credits from an accredited college such as Liberty University is that the

credits will transfer to most colleges that your student may want to attend.

Requirements:

1. This program is only eligible to CCS juniors and seniors. However, summer courses may

also be taken during the summer of the student’s sophomore year.

2. The student must have at least a 2.7 GPA to be eligible. If they have below a 2.7, they

may be accepted but would have to have a letter of recommendation from CCS.

3. The student must do the course work daily at CCS (8:00-3:05) unless a special situation

exception is approved. (An exception to this would be a summer course.) Classes will

also follow the CCS annual calendar for days off, closings, etc.

4. The only dual enrollment credits we are issuing are through Liberty University

Online. We are not currently opening this dual enrollment option with any other

colleges.

5. All classes must be approved by the Administrator.

6. In most cases, if a class is taught here at CCS, students should take the class that we

offer.

7. Taking a dual enrollment class will not exempt a student from meeting the required CCS

courses. In other words, these classes are not intended to take the place of CCS classes

but rather to offer additional options when the requirements are met.

CCS Dual Enrollment

2018-2019 School Year Revised 4/2018

Costs:

1. Tuition: $650 per course (must be paid up front and is non-refundable)

1 course = 1 semester or ½ school year

1 course = 3 college credits or ½ high school credit

Outside of this program, the same 3-credit class through Liberty Online would cost a

minimum of $1,335 but costs only $650 through our dual enrollment program. For

example, if a student took college-level English 101 (first semester) for 3 credits and then

English 102 (second semester) for 3 credits, that year of English (6 college credits/1 high

school credit) would be $1,300 through our Dual Enrollment program as opposed to

$2,670 outside of the program through Liberty Online.

As you can see, this is a significant savings:

2 classes (CCS Dual Enrollment) x $650 = $1,300 (3 college credits/1 high school credit)

2 classes (Liberty Online) x $1,335 = $2,670 (3 college credits/1 high school credit)

2. Fee: varies - Some of the dual enrollment classes do have an extra fee. Any fees are

noted in the course descriptions below.

3. Textbooks and Supplies: varies - Since these are not standard CCS classes, the textbooks

would not be covered by the standard CCS book fee. The typical cost for an LU textbook

is between $20-$60. Not all classes will require a textbook.

Location and Times:

1. These classes will be completed in the CCS Library. Students will use headphones for the

classes, so the volume does not disturb others.

2. Classes will be taken during regular class times and worked into each student’s daily

schedule.

3. Classes will be based on a first-come, first-served basis and dependent upon the number of

computers available at that time.

Billing:

Billing, registration, etc. will be completed through CCS just as it is with all students.
