The Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) issues a Request for Information (RFI) regarding dual enrollment opportunities for its approximately 13,000 high school students worldwide.

The RFI aims to gather information from potential partners on their ability to provide dual enrollment credits, processes for collaboration, cost breakdowns, and student support programs. DoDEA is particularly interested in how these partnerships could adapt to serve military-connected students across multiple geographical locations and time zones. Respondents are asked to detail their capabilities, related experiences, and any existing agreements with other institutions. The submission deadline for responses is February 14, 2025, and all submissions will become government property.
