Abstract | Acceleration programs are challenging courses in which high school students can simultaneously earn credit toward a high school diploma and a college degree (dual credit). This study examined participation rates in acceleration programs and early college outcomes for the 2011 cohort of Minnesota high school graduates. Nearly half the graduates participated in at least one acceleration program during high school, and about half the participants who enrolled in a Minnesota college were awarded at least one dual credit. The majority of participants in acceleration programs who were awarded dual credit received it from a selective or very selective four-year college. Racial/ethnic minority students and students eligible for the federal school lunch program participated in acceleration programs and were awarded credit by the Minnesota college in which they enrolled at lower rates relative to their peers. Participation in acceleration programs was associated with college enrollment and, regardless of the number of credits awarded by the college, with college readiness and persistence.
