NFCC can earn both high
school and college credits.
  "I am taking dual enroll-
ment to get ahead in not
only on my, college, but
also my high school," said
Taylor County High School
student Charlie Johnson.
"By taking English at
NFCC, I get college hours �
and high school credits at
the same time."
  Classes like Computer
Applications I, Freshman
English I and General Psy-
chology give the Dual En-
rollment Summer Institute
participants a chance to ex-
penence challenging col-
lege level courses. Suwan-
nee High School student
Chance Cummings is feel-
ing that very challenge.
  "The classes are chal--
Tlnging and there's a lot of
reading involved, but all in
all I'm learning," said
Cummings.
  For other dual enrollment
students it's all about expe-
riencing college life, while
building positive experi-
ences for future endeavors.
  "I want to get used to
college life before I get out
of high school," said Madi-
son County High School
student Jimmy Smith. "I
also wantedto take the
courses because it would
look good on my resume
when I graduate."
  Whether students are
looking to get ahead of the
educational curve or accli-
mate themselves to college
life, NFCC's dual enroll-
ment is available to quali-
fying students with a 3.0
GPA or higher, acceptable
placement test scores, and
approval of their high
school guidance office.
Students in public, private
and home-school environ-
ments are eligible. NFCC
tuition is waived.
