What is dual credit?

Dual credit is the common term used when a high school student registers for a college course and receives credit for that course from both the college and the high school. High school students (9-12 grade) enrolled in our partner schools may be eligible to earn credit toward high school graduation by completing courses through ¸£Àû¼§'s dual credit programs. 

Courses and program options vary by school district, so students should work with their high school counselor  to confirm available courses, eligibility, deadlines, and next steps.
