Chipola’s Dual Enrollment Summer Academy is a Hit

Chipola's Dual Enrollment Summer Academy is nearing its midpoint in the 6-week session. Students were presented with a Chipola College T-shirt on Tuesday, June 27 in honor of their hard work.

Approximately forty top scholars from local high schools are enrolled and getting a head start on their college education at zero cost. The Academy was created to reduce barriers to participation and increase equitable access and success in dual enrollment. 

In addition to high quality instruction, the six week program provides one-on-one advising and career counseling, academic support, and the only opportunity for dual enrollment students to complete orientation prior to high school graduation.

Research shows that students who participate in dual enrollment are significantly more likely to graduate.  Students who complete the summer academy not only save on tuition, they are better acclimated to college expectations. 

Chipola offers Bachelor’s Degrees, Associate in Arts Degrees, Associate in Science Degrees, Workforce Development programs and certifications.
