Mid-Western Educational Researcher

This project is a comparative exploration of academic success rates for high school students enrolled in a high school/university dual enrollment program. Four-hundred-eighty-four high school student grades in university courses were compared to grades of the general university population and university freshmen (n = 4,552) in specific courses.

The Collegiate Connection dual enrollment program is explained in detail and suggestions for additional future research are also included.
