A student earning dual credit leaves high school already having begun their post-secondary degree, leading to reduced college costs and eliminating duplication of effort for highly capable students.Students are better prepared for college. Dual-credit courses will enable you to start college knowing what to expect in terms of academics. As a first year College student, you will likely feel more confident as you take first-semester courses, since you’ll have already experienced what it is like to take a college class. Additionally, students who participate in dual-credit programs learn about the administrative processes of taking college courses. You will be able to navigate registration, enrollment, and payments before you set foot on campus.Students can save money. With the reduced tuition rate, students can knock out a chunk of their future requirements or electives for a fraction of the cost. A dual-credit program:reduces the amount of time it takes to graduate, allows students to take fewer credit-hours per semester and give them time to take advantage of opportunities like study abroad, which may not otherwise have fit into their schedule.earns more KEES money because dual credit courses are weighted.Earning college credits while in high school increases the likelihood that a student will complete high school and persist in college. All public colleges and universities in Kentucky are required to accept credits from each other. Dual credit courses should transfer within Kentucky. Be advised to always check.There is no single exam or extra test. One of the major hallmarks of dual credit is that, upon completing the same assignments and assessments as a university student, college credit is awarded. There’s no extra test to qualify for credit; students are experiencing the same class that students take on campus and earning actual college credit.General guidelines to receive dual credit: Student must enroll as a KCTCS student in the course in which they wish to receive credit. The eligible dual credit course list is available in the office.DUAL CREDIT EXPENSE BREAKDOWN: Unless a student is participating in the KY Dual Credit Scholarship, they will be required to pay tuition for the course at a reduced tuition rate.
