Through Collegiate Academy, students at D’Iberville High, West Harrison High and Harrison Central High can now earn their high school diploma AND their associate’s degree at the same time. Collegiate Academy gives highly-motivated high school juniors and seniors who enroll in dual credit courses the opportunity to earn up to 60 hours of college credit. That means students can graduate high school with an Associate of Arts, Associate of Science, or Associate of Applied Science Degree. The credit hours are transferable to universities in Mississippi, or an industry certification that will allow students to start working immediately.

Students in the program will be exposed to a rigorous college curriculum, get individual attention through faculty tutoring, and be involved in both high school and college activities. The classes are taught at the high school and at the MGCCC campus or online. MGCCC will work with the students to customize their schedules.
