Still in high school? Dallas College offers a number of programs designed to help high school students get on the fast track to a college education. Explore these programs to find one that fits your goals and interests.
In partnership with local high schools, Dallas College offers college courses, taught by approved adjunct instructors, to qualified high school students for college credit. Students can earn high school and college credit at the same time, hence the term “dual credit.” These college credits from Dallas College are transferable, cost less than regular undergraduate tuition and prepare students for the anticipated rigor of higher education.
Students enrolled in dual credit or early college high school dual credit courses should anticipate the same course rigor and student expectations as on-campus courses at Dallas College.
