Dual enrollment in Nebraska
College credit earned while still in high school. It is the single largest lever on a college bill, and what it costs your family depends almost entirely on which state you are in.
There is no broad state subsidy, so dual-enrolment credits are billed at the college’s own rate. That is still far below university tuition, and it is the case where comparing colleges matters most.
Access College Early (ACE) Scholarship Program
Price set locally
Nebraska has no universal free dual enrollment; each college sets its own (usually discounted) high-school rate that the family pays. The state's ACE Scholarship pays tuition and mandatory fees, but only for qualified LOW-INCOME students, at Nebraska colleges and universities that participate in the program. Books are not mentioned as covered, and no per-credit cap or credit-hour maximum is published on this page. Awards depend on appropriated funds.
Who can enroll. Nebraska high school students taking a college course for a grade (audit or CR/NC courses are ineligible) through a dual-enrollment or early-enrollment agreement with a participating Nebraska college or university. The student or the student's family must be approved for one of the listed federal need-based programs (free/reduced-price lunch, SSI, TANF, SNAP, WIC), have experienced an extreme hardship affecting family income, or be participating in a designated Nebraska Department of Education Career Education program. Students without legal status in the United States, including DACA recipients, are ineligible by state law.
