The Today Show Highlights Dual Enrollment and Early College Programs
On a recent episode of the Today Show, correspondent Vicky Nguyen presented in front of a screen reading "Dual Enrollment: State-Run Community College Classes, Early College."
The Today Show put community colleges like CCAC in the national spotlight during their latest "Money Saving Mondays" feature. NBC's investigative and consumer correspondent Vicky Nguyen discussed the benefits of dual enrollment and early college programs.
"There are state-run programs called dual enrollment," explained Nguyen. "That means that you're in high school but you're taking some community college courses, earning credits toward a degree, which saves you time and money. Sometimes, if you take enough courses in conjunction with your high school and the community college, it's something called early college: you graduate from high school, but you have an associate degree."
CCAC is proud to offer both dual enrollment and early college programs for high schoolers.
