Dual/Concurrent enrollment, taking college courses while still in high school, allows students to take Mid Michigan College courses on campus, online, or at their high school.

Specifically, Concurrent Enrollment refers to a Mid Michigan College course that is taught by a high school teacher, who has followed the Mid employment processes, met the Mid adjunct instructor qualifications, and teaches at the high school location.

Early Colleges are partnerships between a college and high school or intermediate school district that allow high school students to graduate with both their high school diploma and an associate degree (or 60 transferable college credits).
