Paying for Dual Enrollment

Students enrolling in courses located on the main ACC campus, UHCLP or online will be required to pay In-district tuition and all associated fees. Students taking college level courses are also required to purchase textbooks. Textbooks may be purchased at the ACC Bookstore.

AISD Dual Enrollment technical students are only required to pay fees associated with the certification (examples: certification exams, license, malpractice insurances, etc.).

Please refer to the ACC schedule for tuition prices, the MOU, or visit with your ACC Advisor.
