AB 1871: Pupil instruction: dual enrollment: College and Career Access Pathways partnerships.
What AB 1871 does, verified August 19, 2026
The bill aims to improve dual enrollment opportunities for high school students in California. It eliminates the requirement for principal recommendation in college and career access pathways (CCAP) partnerships, allowing high school pupils to enroll in community college courses without parental consent. The bill also increases the number of units a special part-time student can enroll in under a CCAP partnership agreement, from 15 to unlimited units. Furthermore, the bill changes the reporting requirements for CCAP partnerships, focusing on the number of high school pupils who successfully complete college coursework, certificates, or associate degrees by graduation.
