Dual Credit

An initiative for high school students to
receive college credit

High School StudentsKentucky high school students can now receive both high school and college credit for the same course or block of courses offered at West Kentucky Community and Technical College.

West Kentucky Community and Technical College has developed dual credit and articulation agreements with high schools and area technology centers in the West Kentucky district. Students who are concurrently enrolled in high school and our college may earn both high school and college credit (dual credit) for the same course, upon completion of course requirements.

Students who enroll in college courses while still in high school realize many benefits, such as; developing a college transcript while still a high school student, experiencing a college curriculum, shortening the amount of time they will actually spend as a full time college student, realizing a financial benefit by not having to attend formal college classes, eliminating the need to stand in registration lines to enroll in a college class, and optimizing resources provided by the community and technical college.
