The Early College department offers opportunities for students to prepare for and get a head start on college courses. With options like Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment, Running Start, Pathways, and Bridge Programs, students have the opportunity to earn college credits and begin their career pathway while in high school. We encourage you and your family to explore the option that is best for you!
*Dual Credit options vary from school to school. Check with your high school about your options.
**All high school students taking college courses are considered dually enrolled; enrolled in high school and enrolled at RVC.
These courses are offered at RVC campuses with students receiving both high school and college credit for college-level courses successfully completed.
These courses are offered at the high school level with students receiving both high school and college credit for Rock Valley College approved high school courses.
