Early Admission

Many colleges and universities require the same type of “core” or “general education” requirements.  Courses like English, math, and social science courses.  Some of the advantages of completing these types of courses at Macomb include:

• Save $$$ -Macomb’s tuition is a lot less than what you’d pay at a 4-year college or university.
• Save time - getting a jump-start on college credit means you’ll finish your degree sooner.
• Gain experience – moving from high school to college is a big step.  Easing your way into it by taking classes as a high school student will make the transition much easier.
• It is recommended that you work with your high school counselor or Macomb staff when choosing your courses to ensure the credits will transfer.

Dual Enrollment

Dual Enrollment is an opportunity for high school students to discover the college experience on one of Macomb’s campuses, or in an online or hybrid format. Dual Enrollment generally falls into one of the following categories:

1. High School Sponsored
This option allows high school student to earn both high school and college credit for designated coursework.  If you qualify, the school district pays for the cost of these classes.  Authorization is needed from your high school principal and/or district office.

2. Self Sponsored
This option provides you the opportunity to earn college credit while still in high school, but you are responsible for all costs.  If you’re interested, contact the Admissions coordinator at earlyadmit@macomb.edu.
