DUAL ENROLLMENT OFFERINGS

Dual Enrollment coursework has a small fee associated with it; however, the cost is drastically reduced when compared to prices paid at LSU. For a DE course, the cost to the parent is $100 per credit hour. This cost is $300 for each three-hour class, typically about 70% cheaper than a similar class at LSU. In addition, prospective DE students must meet a set of ACT and GPA requirements which vary based on the level of course taken for college credit or may qualify based upon teacher recommendation and past performance in closely related coursework.
