Grades dont necessarily follow you. The credits from the university where my d took mist of her classes didnt follow although we wish they had. I think dual enrollment has its place for those who had it with high school, for those contemplating stem majors to reduce worklod so they can graduate in four years, and for those tight on money. Its definitely not for everyone. However, my d has no regrets. It gave her the opportunity to be a college student while not set totally free where she learned the expectations of college without all the distractions of living on campus. It will also afford her the opportunity not to have to go to summer school, overload and do a coop program, study overseas and the like.
