<p>I am currently taking Dual Enrollment classes through a local community college. I will be attending a state college after I graduate. Will whatever grades I earn in these classes factor in to my college GPA? Furthermore, I am planning on applying to medical school after I get my bachelors. Will my Dual Enrollment classes and grades also play a role in my acceptance to medical school?</p>
<p>That choice is up to the individual university, all of them have different policies regarding transfer credits at the freshmen level. The AMCAS requires you to report all community college classes ever taken and the grades you earned in them, so yes they would affect the GPA that you would apply to medical school with, given that they require you to report the grades.</p>
<p>Unless you plan on playing to early assurance or early acceptance medical school programs in your sophomore year, your work in high school would not be greatly considered in the application process.</p>

<p>This may not be entirely true. If your dual enrollment classes are science and/or math classes, these will not only be included in your cumulative GPA, but also your science GPA (bio,chem, phys, math). Medical schools look at both when considering you for admission.</p>
<p>If you major in a non-science field in college and have taken some/all your med school science pre-reqs as dual enrollment, then these grades will count a great deal. (Since the dual enrollment courses may be the bulk of your sGPA.)</p>
