The College in High School Alliance works towards a future in which every state, and the federal government, has a policy framework that ensures that student access, participation and success in high quality college in high school programs accurately reflects the geographic, demographic, and economic make-up of the nation’s high school students.

New Urgency in the New Normal

Education remains critical to upward mobility

These programs work as an equity lever

These programs are essential not a luxury

States should ensure that budget cuts don’t exacerbate equity gaps

Refers to college courses offered to high school students,

regardless of

“What’s the BEST dual

enrollment funding model my

state can adopt?”

A lot we still don’t know about FY 2021…

What we *do* know…

▪ Legislative calendars

pushed back in some

states (e.g., GA

reconvening 6/15)

▪ 32 states had enacted

budgets for FY 2021

(NCSL) Of those…

▪ 16 states adopted a

biennial budget in 2019

legislative sessionSource: https://www.ncsl.org/research/fiscal-policy/fy-2021-state-budget-

status.aspx

z

What we *do* know: Part II

GA: GA Student Finance Commission in January proposed flat funding for

FY 2021 - $100.8 million (coupled with course caps approved in H.B. 444 in April)

KY: 1-year state budget approved

▪ $13 million for Dual Credit Scholarship

OK: Regents saw 3.95% cut in FY 21 appropriations

▪ FY 21: $12,982,900

▪ FY 20: $13,516, 349

Biennial budgets in many states with state contribution to DE

▪ These programs are *probably* safe for FY 2021--remains to be seen what cuts

they may see for FY 2022

Appropriations-based funding models: Potentially more vulnerable to cuts

What can mitigate program budget cuts

▪ Longevity, popularity of program (GA, MN)

▪ More modest program parameters

▪ Grade levels served (OK)

▪ Number of courses covered (KY)

▪ Types of courses covered (NH)

Page 25: Dual Enrollment State Funding Models and the COVID-19 Era · z “District pays” example: Ohio Secondary funding held flat in 2019 biennium budget If schools cut courses offered

z

“District pays” states: Flat district funding (or worse) may force difficult conversations

▪ Which courses to offer?

▪ How many courses/sections to offer?

▪ Caps on # of courses students may access?

▪ Changes to eligibility requirements?

▪ Restricting program access among students with lower levels of

academic preparation?

Page 26: Dual Enrollment State Funding Models and the COVID-19 Era · z “District pays” example: Ohio Secondary funding held flat in 2019 biennium budget If schools cut courses offered

z

“District pays” example: Ohio

▪ Secondary funding held flat in 2019 biennium budget

▪ If schools cut courses offered at the HS, students may opt to take

▪ Online courses: Equity barrier for rural, lower-achieving students

▪ Courses at the college: Equity barrier for students unable to travel to

college campus

▪ Courses offered at the college paid at a higher rate than courses offered at HS

Page 27: Dual Enrollment State Funding Models and the COVID-19 Era · z “District pays” example: Ohio Secondary funding held flat in 2019 biennium budget If schools cut courses offered

z

More recession-resistant funding models require structural changes

As a result, may be tough to transition to, even in better

economic times

▪ NM, NC

▪ Institutions reimbursed in same manner as traditional PS students

▪ No talk of changes to funding model

▪ IA:

▪ Supplementary weighting in K-12 funding formula for concurrently

enrolled students

▪ No talk of changes to funding model

Page 28: Dual Enrollment State Funding Models and the COVID-19 Era · z “District pays” example: Ohio Secondary funding held flat in 2019 biennium budget If schools cut courses offered

z

Non-tuition costs may exacerbate equity barrier

Including in states that cover student tuition

▪ Fees

▪ Textbooks

▪ Course materials

▪ Transportation

Page 29: Dual Enrollment State Funding Models and the COVID-19 Era · z “District pays” example: Ohio Secondary funding held flat in 2019 biennium budget If schools cut courses offered

z

What about approaches focusing state funds on low-income students?

Counselors

▪ Getting the word out to eligible

students

▪ Meeting with students to

▪ Discuss participation benefits

▪ Determine courses aligned with

student interests, goals

▪ Getting application form, link to

interested eligible students

Students

▪ Getting application

completed, submitted, by

deadline

▪ May need to drop course if

scholarship funds do not

adequately cover participation

costs

Generally: If a scholarship, onus falls on counselors, students

Findings

▪ CHS tuition support is meeting students’ financial needs

▪ Running Start textbook support falls short of meeting

student needs

z

Washington Dual Enrollment Scholarship Pilot: Lessons Learned

Running Start▪ Transportation is biggest

participation barrier

▪ FRL students may miss

school lunch going to

college campus

College in the High School

▪ Students not necessarily earning

college credit

▪ Students assume they’re getting

college credit, don’t realize there are

extra steps they need to complete

▪ “College transcript” makes some

students nervous

▪ 1-1 student advising increases

likelihood that students earn college

credit

Other barriers besides funding
