Homeschool Dual Enrollment in Kentucky
Yes. Kentucky homeschooled juniors and seniors can use the state's Dual Credit Scholarship, which in 2026-27 pays the tuition for one college class, up to $99 per credit hour.
How the Dual Credit Scholarship works
The Kentucky Higher Education Assistance Authority (KHEAA) runs the Dual Credit Scholarship. A homeschooled student applies to KHEAA directly with its Dual Credit Scholarship Application, separate from the college's own admission.
Participating Kentucky colleges and universities charge every dual credit student no more than $99 per credit hour and no extra fees. For 2026-27 the scholarship is limited to one general education class, so a second class is billed to the family at that rate.
Remedial, developmental, repeated, and audited courses are not covered.
