Transcripts & Transferring Credit
Wondering how to transfer the credits you earn as a dual-enrolled student? We can help!
Enrolling is Easy
First, let your school know you want to participate. (Homeschooled students can skip this step.) Second, once you're registered, you'll need to sign-up for the specific classes.
Choosing Courses
Academy classes may be different than classes offered at school. Academy students get priority placement, and classes are only offered to high school students. We do our best to offer high-demand courses, which are common prerequisites in many degree programs.
Eligibility
Students must be in grades 9-12 and should have a 3.0 grade point average (GPA) cumulatively or in relevant coursework. Students who do not meet the GPA criteria will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Cost
Online courses for the Academy cost $200 per credit, which is a considerable saving from the full tuition and fees cost of $353.06 per credit. Students are advised to work with their school to see if the school will contribute to the cost in whole or in part.

Course Alignments
We often get asked how our courses meet high school graduation requirements, so we created a guide that details suggested course alignments. Ultimately each high school has the authority to determine how the course aligns at their district. These suggestions are based on arrangements we have in place with districts across the state.
