I want to go towards the main UC schools (mostly Davis, SB, and SD), but I was thinking of taking dual enrollment bio senior year. So my question is, do UC schools accept dual enrollment classes as college credit? What are your thoughts on D.E?
You need to talk to the schools in question. It also may depend on whether or not you are a California resident. DD’s high school offers dual enrollment classes that are accepted in state, but I found that the out-of-state schools she is interested in prefer AP classes and don’t give credit for DE taken in our state.
If the DE school is in Calif, go to http://www.assist.org/web-assist/welcome.html to find out about the transferability of the bio class to UC that interest you.
