Dual Credit Courses

Junior and senior students of Bangs High School may earn both high school and college credit at the same time when enrolled in a dual credit course. Credit is posted to the student’s high school transcript and college transcript upon successful completion of the course. The student is taught and graded in the same way as college students who take the same course. Students, who would like to be considered for dual enrollment, should contact their school counselor. Students must meet specific college and BISD criteria before being subject to tuition and textbook costs. It is the responsibility of the student to check with the college of his or her choice to determine if a dual credit course will be accepted or not accepted.
