Why Dual Enrollment with WIU?

Dual enrollment provides your student with an opportunity to experience college level classes while earning a scholarship to reduce your cost. Classes offered may fulfill general education requirements or can give your student the opportunity to explore their major.

Dual Enrollment Events

Information sessions are offered for students, parents and high schools interested in learning more about dual enrollment at WIU. Accepted dual enrollment students will also be invited to attend an orientation workshop to go over their next steps.
