Opportunities for High School Students
We're the #1 Community College in Tennessee, and a leader of degrees issued to middle college students in the state.
Here's why: Compared to some dual enrollment programs out there, our program is designed for you to complete a full degree (60 hours) while you are in high school, not just getting you a few classes that only get you halfway finished (requiring more tuition to complete your degree).
Paired with our Middle College or Dual Enrollment Grants, students on average only pay $2,900 out-of-pocket thanks to the lowest tuition in West Tennessee compared to any college or university.
You read that right...less than the cost of Starbucks for a year, you have a college degree. Pretty cool, right?

网曝吃瓜 is committed to providing students with a flexible course schedule, allowing students to maintain a synchronous schedule between high school and college classes.
This depends on your student's educational goals. Do they want to earn an associate degree while they attend high school? If so, Middle College would be the best option.

Estimated cost not covered by grant is $1,035 plus cost of textbooks/courseware.

The Dual Enrollment Grant fully covers the student's first five courses. Estimated tuition and fees to cover an associate degree not covered by the dual enrollment grant is $5,000 plus cost of textbooks/courseware. This assumes the use of 12 local dual credit hours.
