Program Overview
The University of Louisville High School Dual Credit Program offers qualified, local high school students the opportunity to earn college and high school credit simultaneously before they receive their high school diploma. Benefits of the program are to:
Develop a college transcript while in high school Experience college curriculum and instructional methods Shorten the amount of time required to complete a college degree Save money by paying less per credit hour than a regular U of L college student Offer high school students the amenities of a U of L college student: free TARC access, free access to U of Ls libraries, and free access to our brand new student recreation center.
Transferring Credits
It is important to note that acceptance as a dual credit student does not guarantee acceptance to U of L as an undergraduate student. Students enrolling in and completing a dual credit course will obtain a college transcript. The grade will be automatically recorded on their student record at U of L.
If the student wishes to have the credits transferred elsewhere, they must contact the Registrars office to request a copy of their transcript. The student should contact their prospective college or university for transfer credit guidelines. If the student wishes to continue education at U of L, the credits will automatically appear on the students record.
