You take your high school courses seriously. So why not use your hard work to shave
semesters—and some serious dollars—off your education. Earn college credit for what
you’re already doing: taking challenging courses at your high school.
What is Dual Credit?
Dual credit classes are college credit-bearing classes taught by high school teachers,
usually at your high school. These classes align with classes taught on STLCC campuses.
This ensures you're getting a college-level experience that conveniently fits in your
schedule.
Save Money Today for Tomorrow
Even at highly-discounted rates, other programs cost around 60% more than our dual-credit
program. Dual credit classes cost just $25 per credit hour.
Earn Credits for Your Diploma & Your Degree
With STLCC's partnerships with local high schools you'll stay on track for graduating,
while earning college credit from STLCC.
Start Here, Go Anywhere
Choose credits that are designed to transfer with STLCC with Missouri's CORE 42 Program
for classes that transfer, guaranteed.
Enroll in Dual Credit
Set up your first semester as a dual-credit student by:
1. Applying to STLCC
Apply to STLCC by completing the dual credit application at apply.stlcc.edu
2. Find Your A#
You will receive an A# via email shortly after submitting your STLCC application.
Your A# is an important identifier that you will need to know to register for classes,
so don't lose it.
During our registration window, fill out the Dual Credit Class Request form to ensure you're registered in your classes. This form will be linked above when
registration is active. Our team will register you in your classes and send you a
confirmation email when registration is complete.
5. Complete Parent/Guardian Authorization
An approval email will be sent to your parent/guardian as soon as you submit your
class request form. Your parent must complete the approval form before you can be
registered for dual credit.
To participate in the dual-credit program, you must demonstrate you’re ready for college
classes. We look for students who are high school:
Seniors and juniors with a 2.5 GPA or higher
Sophomores with a 3.0 GPA or higher
To enroll, you'll need to receive permission from one of your school’s administrators
and a parent or guardian. You must also meet all course prerequisites.
Review our Dual Credit Student Handbook for more information about course prerequisites, student resources, and College policies.
