Program Costs
To limit out-of-pocket expense to students, SAU's dual enrollment program costs have been aligned with the State of Michigan Dual Enrollment Calculation Worksheet available on the Michigan Department of Education website. The cost of dual enrollment tuition is subject to change each year based on the State of Michigan's Dual Enrollment Budget amounts.
If your high school is approved for funding from the state, you may receive no out-of-pocket expense (except for book costs or course fees). For students attending a high school that hasn't been approved for state funding, the cost is a discounted “per credit hour” charge.
