## How Dual Enrollment Saves Money
Dual enrollment lets high school students take college courses at a fraction of the normal tuition, or sometimes for free.
### Formula
**Savings = (University Cost per Credit - DE Cost per Credit) x Total Credits**
Beyond cost savings, dual enrollment gives students a head start, potentially graduating a semester or year early.

计算示例
A student takes 6 dual enrollment courses (3 credits each) at $75/credit vs. $500/credit at their university.
- Total credits: 6 x 3 = 18
- DE cost: 18 x $75 = $1,350
- University cost: 18 x $500 = $9,000
- Net savings: $9,000 - $1,350 = $7,650
