DUAL ENROLLMENT

MAKE IT LOCAL.
Kendalls Dual Enrollment program is a great way for motivated high school juniors and seniors who
are strong in art to get a jump-start on their college education. We currently offer Dual Enrollment
programs on 25 high school campuses throughout the state of Michiganwith more to come. And in
most cases, you can even receive tuition support through the State of Michigan School Aid Act.

BENEFITS
ACADEMIC
Students can earn up to 10 percent, or 12 college credits, toward their college degree while still in high
school. Kendalls Dual Enrollment instructors are carefully selected for their award-winning programs and
their expertise in advanced art education. According to Sandy Britton, Director of Enrollment Management,
Kendalls Dual Enrollment teachers are in the top 10 percent of Michigans high school art teachers.

PERSONAL
Many of Kendalls Dual Enrollment students have won numerous awards in the largest and most prestigious
national arts competition in the United States, The Scholastic Art and Writing Awards. In addition, our Dual
Enrollment students have gone on to win scholarships to Kendall and other fine art and design colleges
throughout the United States. In 2009 alone, our Dual Enrollment program averaged $104,000 of student
scholarships per location.

FINANCIAL
Students and families can save money on college tuition. For the 20092010 academic year, one three-credit
Dual Enrollment studio course costs a total of $642. This same course for a student attending Kendall after
completing high school would cost $1,839. This means a cost savings of $1,197 right from the start.
In addition, Dual Enrollment students may be eligible for funding assistance through the State of Michigan
School Aid Act of 1979a percentage of the foundation allowance your school district receives for your
attendance at your high school may be used toward the tuition cost for the Kendall Dual Enrollment course.
Just ask your high school guidance counselor for more information regarding how your foundation allowance
applies to Dual Enrollment.

COLLEGE CREDIT ONLY

Not all high schools allow their students to dual enroll. In these cases, students can take Kendall Dual
Enrollment classes for college credit only. The discounted Dual Enrollment rate still applies. When taken as
college credit only, the student/parent is responsible for tuition.

PARTICIPATING SCHOOLS
Kendall is a nationally acclaimed college of art and design whose statewide Dual Enrollment program
has proven benefits for students and their families, school districts and communities. Students can
participate in Dual Enrollment by taking classes on-campus or at our off-campus locations.
