Promotional flyer for a Dual Enrollment Information Session hosted by South Florida State College. At the top are photos of high school students engaged in learning activities—one image shows a student painting at an easel in an art class, and another shows several students wearing safety glasses working together in a science lab. Large headline text reads: “Are You Interested in Dual Enrollment?” Below the headline is event information: “Dual Enrollment Information Session — Monday, March 23 | 6–7 p.m. SFSC Lake Placid Center, 500 E. Interlake Blvd.” The flyer lists three benefits of dual enrollment: • It’s Possible to Save Money on College. SFSC tuition is waived for high school students who take approved college-level classes through SFSC’s Dual Enrollment program. • It’s Possible to Finish College Faster. When dual enrollment students take college-level classes, they earn credits that apply to both their high school and college graduation requirements. • It’s Possible to Choose Your Path. Students can earn an associate degree, a college credit certificate, or a career certificate in a vocational program while still in high school. At the bottom are the South Florida State College logo and the phrase “It’s Possible.” Contact information is included: southflorida.edu and SFSC Recruiter phone number 784-7447, along with small accreditation text for the college.
