College Prep at DCET

College preparatory is a program at DCET that prepares students for college. Every high school should prepare students for college, sometimes this does not happen. All schools should adopt a college preparatory program.  We at DCET assist interns for college and careers.  Our Internship program is  win/win situation where students and DCET have mutual benefits.  

Jr. and High School Senior students come to DCET to earn their 100 community volunteer hours and help us educate senior citizens.  A great combination and win/win relationship!
