Dual Credit Info. for Seniors
If you are a senior enrolled in Dual Credit classes and you plan to attend Collin College:
You do not need to reapply or send a final high school transcript to Collin College
You should schedule an appointment with the Collin College and Career Counselor, Brittany Cortez.
You will need to send an AP Score Report to Collin College to be evaluated for transfer credit.
Seniors enrolled in Dual Credit classes who plan to attend a university other than Collin College should follow the application instructions for the institutions where they are applying. Students should also request and pay for their Collin College transcript to be sent to the university they will be attending in the fall. It is helpful to print an unofficial transcript to take with you to orientation in the event the university has not yet received the official copy.
Dual Credit questions? Reach out to your DUAL CREDIT ADVISOR.
