Dual enrollment plus articulation of AP credits mean that DS and DD will have enough credits to earn an Associates degree before high school graduation (well, actually before senior year). The question is whether they should bother getting it if they are going on to a four year university anyhow? In looking over the requirements, there is just one course at the community college that they would have to take that they would not otherwise take. This is for a general Associates of Arts degree.
The other question is whether they should try to get a specialized Associates of Art or Associates of Science degree? This option would require some extra effort as there may be a couple of extra/specific courses they have to take plus they have to technically wait until the high school diploma is in hand in June of their senior year and then declare their major.
Any thoughts? Any downsides?
