Dual credit coursework enables high school students to make progress towards a college degree before they finish high school and save on the overall cost of a college education.
High school students, log in to the DualEnroll portal to apply for the dual credit program and register for classes.
Dual Credit helps students attain college credit while in high school. Many students set goals to complete an associate's degree (AA), general education core courses or certain courses for a career pathway before completing high school.
For this reason, we strongly encourage students participating in the dual credit program to begin their academic planning as early as possible to ensure they make the most of their college credit. Successful planning requires students to review college catalogues, understand career training requirements and ensure the courses students are enrolled in apply toward the credential or degree being sought. Selecting the degree or career training program that is right for you doesn’t have to be complicated or frustrating. We encourage students to contact their school counselor/career advisor (Advanced Opportunities designee) or one of our Early College Coordinators for more information. These resources assist with the planning process and help construct an academic plan best suited to a student’s unique goals and skills
Dual Credit at CSI continues to grow with over 6,000 students earning dual credits in the 2019-2020 academic year. With that growth, the Early College team is dedicated to ensuring students have access to the help and resources they need at all of the 60+ high schools we partner with. Idaho is helping to lead the way in dual enrollment, ranking in the top five states in the nation for dual credit participation!
