Since 2021, ECCS juniors and seniors have had the unique opportunity to participate in our dual enrollment option that involves the same high quality, Christian education that we always offer while also getting college credit. 

“There are some things people don’t realize about what we do at ECCS when it comes to dual enrollment,” says Logic & Rhetoric (L&R) Principal, Julie McGuffey. “People don’t realize that they can get college credit for attending classes here just like they normally would.”

While traditional dual enrollment more typically involves in-person classes at a college campus or taking an extra class online, at ECCS we don’t take that approach since it would mean outsourcing our education. It wouldn’t be classical or Christian. Instead, we have a partnership with the University of Mobile (UM), which is an accredited Baptist university. 

“Students sign up to take a dual enrollment class, they go to their regular ECCS class just as any other student does. They do the same amount of work and receive college credit for that work and credit at ECCS,” Mrs. McGuffey explains. Our dual enrollment classes include 11th and 12th grade rhetoric, Bible, literature, history, and anatomy/physiology.  UM has reviewed our curriculum for these classes.
