Dual Credit

  • Students have the opportunity to earn high school as well as college-level credit for certain courses offered at the high school level. Students must meet all qualifications set by the college to receive dual credit.

    Please note:

    1. Students are responsible for making direct contact with all colleges for AP and Dual Credit transfer questions, as the high schools cannot issue transcripts indicating college credit. Students must contact credit-giving institution for this information.
    2. The Colleges/Universities retain the right to cancel the Dual Credit Status of courses at either LHS or LNHS at any time. Some courses listed as Dual Credit will be Dual Credit at one high school and not the other based on requirements set by the cooperating University.  
    3. Students are strongly encouraged to take the ACT prior to the start of dual credit coursework, as this may be required for registration with the college or university.
    4. Students may also choose to take courses not listed below for college credit at an accredited college or university.  It is highly recommended students meet with their counselor about the potential of receiving high school credit for these courses prior to enrollment to ensure LPS will accept the credit and what credit type will be applied towards LPS graduation requirements.
    5. Students who sign up for Dual Credit must understand they are creating a permanent collegiate record and grades earned in a Dual Credit course impact their high school and college level GPA. 

     

    Tuition costs are subject to change at any time and there may be additional enrollment fees associated with different Universities.
