IHS student Lillian Croel is getting ahead on college through dual enrollment

Lillian Croel is a second-year student at 十分六合彩 and she鈥檚 only a junior at Ionia High School.

Croel is earning college credits through dual enrollment, which allows students to take up to 10 college classes throughout their high school career. Successful completion of a college course grants them college credit as well as satisfies one of their high school graduation requirements.

Croel first enrolled at 十分六合彩 as a high school sophomore and has completed two English classes and an Introduction to Film class. She said the experience has helped her grow as a student and learn what is needed to be successful in college courses.

鈥淚 have had nothing but good experiences at 十分六合彩,鈥 Croel said.

鈥淚 have found that in taking my English-based classes, I have become a better writer,鈥 she added. 鈥淚 have seen a huge improvement in my writing 鈥 there鈥檚 a lot to learn to complete college-level work.鈥

She is glad for the opportunity to grow as a student.

鈥淚 have learned a lot about how to be a college student,鈥 she said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a heavier workload than high school. I have learned to tackle my work as soon as possible and not procrastinate.鈥

While Croel has not yet decided her plans after high school, one thing is certain 鈥 she plans to attend community college and hopefully take advantage of the Community College Guarantee, which offers free tuition for n-district high school graduates, before transferring to a four-year institution.

鈥淚t鈥檚 basically free college, if I keep going at a community college,鈥 she said.

Croel encourages other high schoolers to consider dual enrollment.

鈥淭ake a class that you have an interest in and will help you in the future,鈥 she said. 鈥淵ou will learn a lot and it will prepare you to be successful at a larger college or university.鈥
