Dual and concurrent enrollment can give students a head start on college, but without the right guidance, it can also feel a bit like sending them onto a college campus with a backpack full of good intentions and a very confusing course catalog. In this interactive session, we’ll explore how high school counselors, college advisors, and faculty can work together to create a supportive system that helps students choose the right courses, understand expectations, and build the confidence and skills they need to succeed in college. Through conversation and shared experiences, participants will exchange practical strategies for advising students, strengthening high school–college partnerships, and ensuring dual enrollment is more than just earning credits, it’s a meaningful step toward long-term college success.
