The cost of Dual Enrollment courses:

In many instances, there is no out-of-pocket tuition cost to students. This is made possible by a combination of state funding (the Dual Enrollment Grant) and MTSU funding.

Potential costs that students are responsible for, in addition to the $25 application fee, include textbooks as well as miscellaneous course fees (such as science lab fees). For specific cost-related questions, contact the Dual Enrollment office.
