Dual Enrollment Opportunity

Enrollment & Admissions:
- Will be available statewide to students in grades 11 and 12 in 2022–2023
- A maximum of 200 students in the state may participate in the 2022–2023 program. Enrollment will be first come first served based on enrollment and the TCC application.
- Enrollment will open this Friday, July 1, with an enrollment deadline of Friday, July 15, 2022. Participating students will enroll in both VVA and TCC.

We understand the application timeline is short and program enrollment is small, and want to ensure that we offer the opportunity to FCPS students.
