 Dual enrollment manager Ted McWilliams says the Board of Trustees approved a dual enrollment tuition increase to $190 per credit hour. McWilliams says a state grant pays for the students' first five hours. It gives students an opportunity to save a lot of money. One way is they get the super low tuition rate, about a third of normal tuition. The other is if they get these out while they're in high school and everything, then they get to bypass them. They get college credit for them anyway.
