Lincoln County Schools has entered into an agreement with Bethel University to provide dual enrollment courses for students at Lincoln County High School and Lincoln Central Academy.

Bethel’s Dual Enrollment Program offers students the opportunity to earn up to 30 college credit hours at no tuition cost. Moreover, for courses taken through Bethel’s Virtual Campus learning management system, textbooks are included in the tuition fee. This structure ensures that taking college courses in high school is more financially accessible than ever before. Additionally, students who opt to attend Bethel University after graduating high school may qualify for a dual enrollment scholarship if they have completed courses through Bethel.

Craig Lunn, Dual Enrollment Director for Bethel, expressed enthusiasm, stating, “Lincoln County High School will be our 40th partnering school, and we are thrilled to extend these opportunities to their students.”

A meeting for interested students and parents will take place in the library at Lincoln County High School on Tuesday, March 26, from 4:30 to 7 PM. For inquiries, please contact Craig Lunn at lunnc@bethelu.edu or Kim Houston, Admission Advisor, at houstonk@bethelu.edu.

Bethel University, situated in West Tennessee in the city of McKenzie with a population of approximately 5,000 residents, was established in 1842. Conveniently located halfway between Nashville and Memphis just north of Jackson off Interstate 40, Bethel University offers a prime educational opportunity in a historic setting.
