A Dual Credit Program allows eligible students to earn college credit for certain high school courses in which they are enrolled. Dual credit courses are high school courses that adhere to college-level standards. The primary purpose of the Dual Credit Program is to enable students who meet the requirements to earn college credits while completing their high school education. A successfully completed dual credit course earns the student college credit which may be applied toward an associate degree and/or may transfer to other colleges and universities. Under the High School/Dual Credit Agreement, students may not enroll in more
than two dual credit courses per semester (6 to 8 credit hours).(depend on the community college)
