How are Dual Enrollment Credits Treated	Dual enrollment courses are processed using our standard criteria for assessing transfer credit
If You Complete an Associates Degree in High School	Students earning an associate degree concurrent with high school graduation (sometimes referenced as dual enrollment or Early College) are not eligible for admission under the terms of this agreement.
Key Additional Requirements	To participate in this GAA, students must complete a transfer-focused VCCS associate degree offered by their campus, as outlined in the agreement. Some VCCS General Studies degrees are considered transfer-focused and are therefore eligible, while others are not. Letter of intent not required.
