dualenrollment

Definition

An academic program allowing high school students to take college-level courses that simultaneously satisfy high school graduation requirements and provide university credit.

Etymology

The term combines the Latin 'dualis' (meaning two or containing two) with the English 'enrollment' (the act of recording a name in a register), reflecting a system that bridges two distinct levels of education.
