Who is Dual Credit for?

Posted by:

Dual Credit courses are an option for all EHS students who meet college entrance exam requirements (TSIA), compete necessary applications/forms, and follow the dual credit guidelines provided by EHS.

Dual Credit students need to be 'college ready' in reading, writing, and mathematics in order to be eligible to enroll in dual credit college courses. EHS offers the Accuplacer TSIA exam to enrolled students in these three subject areas.

Currently, EISD partners with Navarro College for Dual Credit courses. The required TSIA scores for Navarro College can be found in the link below.

Typically, dual credit students have a career and college goal in mind, which motivates them to do well acacemically and get ahead while still in high school. Students who are new to dual credit, or who do not have a career or college plan, may find dual credit challenging in the beginning. The good news is that students who complete their first college course tend to continue on with additional college classes.
