Dual-enrollment classes boosted for HOPE
High school students who take college-level classes would get the same advantage for HOPE scholarship eligibility as those who take advancement placement classes, under legislation approved by the state House on Monday.
HB 131, sponsored by Rep. Valerie Clark, R-Lawrenceville, passed the House 169-1.
Current law allows scores in AP classes an extra boost when determining a student’s eligibility for the HOPE scholarship. Clark’s bill would give dual-enrollment classes the same boost.
