Policy Brief: Dual Enrollment in California
Severance, Mary
Public Policy Institute of California
Dual enrollment provides opportunities for high school students to take college courses and earn college credit. The COVID-19 pandemic has fueled a surge in participation across the country, and equity-centered legislation has raised dual enrollment's profile in California. Because California's public K-12 schools serve large shares of students from groups that have been historically underrepresented in higher education, increasing equity and success in these programs is critical to expanding educational opportunities, improving economic mobility, and meeting California's need for skilled workers. This brief highlights selected findings from the report, "Dual Enrollment in California: Promoting Equitable Student Access and Success" and suggests strategies for California to improve and expand dual enrollment.
