Abstract	In an effort to increase college access and success rates, the state of Texas has expanded dual enrollment programs and Early College High Schools (ECHS) that provide students with the opportunity to begin their collegiate careers while still in high school. More recently, these dual enrollment and ECHS programs have tried to broaden inclusion among "at-risk" high school students and student dropouts. Using institutional data from a high school district and a community college located within a suburban region of Texas, this study aimed to determine which students benefited most from these early college access initiatives. Collective results from the descriptive and logistic regression analysis revealed equity gaps in participation among Black and socioeconomically disadvantaged students. While dual enrollment participation was associated with higher odds of postsecondary matriculation, ECHS students matriculated at markedly lower rates. Based upon these findings, the paper offers recommendations for policy changes and institutional practices that can increase college access among traditionally underserved student populations.
