This document discusses barriers to equitable access to dual enrollment programs. It notes that dual enrollment programs often require high GPAs, creating barriers for low-income students with other qualifications. Costs of courses and lack of transportation or internet access can also prevent low-income families from participating. The document proposes that community partnerships could help increase equity by providing transportation, tutoring, counseling and assisting with applications, visits, financial aid awareness and reducing support burdens for low-income students.
