High school students interested in participating in the program must meet the same requirements as all other college students within the guidelines established by The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.
Eligible high school students are able to take courses in place of, or in addition to, the normal course load at their high school.
Dual Credit courses, offered at high school sites, are provided at no cost to students.
By taking part in the Dual Credit Programs, eligible high school students can take academic or technical college courses that will get them a jumpstart to a college degree while in high school. Eligible high school students and their families can potentially save hundreds to thousands of dollars in tuition and other expenses during their college career at South Texas College!
