Might sound silly but...can you be enrolled in two colleges at the same time that are close to each other?

Answer 1

Ofcourse. It is very common. Say if you wanted a class which you couldn't get. You can apply to other college and take the same course over there. I have done that.

Answer 2

Yes. My sister-in-law was a full time student at a state school about 100 miles away. When she would come home for the summer, she would take classes at the community college. Just beware, not all courses will transfer between colleges. Before you enroll, check with your guidance counselor and the college that you wish to obtain your degree from.

Answer 3

It can be done. Sometimes schools will allow joint degrees. I've been told that Morehouse College has a joint degree program with Georgia Tech, for example.

I have a friend who attended Holy Cross and Dartmouth at the same time.

Often, schools that are close together allow students to cross-register at another school without having to be enrolled in the other school. For example, students at Rosemont College can take classes at Villanova, students at Harvard can take classes at MIT and students near Amherst, MA can take classes at any one of five colleges.

Answer 4

Yes you can be enrolled in two colleges...as long as they are getting there money anyway!
The only problem you might encounter is financial aid as there are rules regarding multiple enrollment and the award amount.

Answer 5

Yes, but you probably wouldn't want to, and if you have government financial aid, it would probably cause problems. Also, very often colleges that are near each other have arrangements where you can take some courses at the other one and have them count.

Answer 6

It's not unheard of. FullTime student at one college and PartTime at the other simply due to the fact that FullTime College did not offer two of the specific courses needed to complete my degree.
