What is Dual Credit?
The Dual Credit program allows Grade 11 & 12 students (must be 16-years-old once course begins) to take college or apprenticeship courses that count towards both the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) and a post-secondary certificate, diploma, or degree, or an apprenticeship certification. Students may earn up to four optional credits through college-delivered courses.
There are many advantages to taking a Dual Credit course:
Experience college while still in high school at no cost to you (course fee, materials, transportation - all free).
1 course = 2 credits (one high school; one college)
Learn in state-of-the-art College facilities (e.g. professional kitchen) while being taught by college professors
Explore different pathway options
