In each dual credit course, you can expect to spend around 135-160 contact hours. A significant portion of this time will be dedicated to reading the material, watching instructional videos, and completing the Check Your Knowledge Participation Quizzes. To complete the larger mastery assignments, you should set aside at least 20 hours, and the rest of your time should be devoted to studying for and taking your midterm and final exams. Term and semester start and completion dates are selected at course enrollment.

Students can receive a full refund if they drop the course within 15 days of their purchase.

Once you have successfully finished the course and obtained a passing grade, you have the opportunity to request an official transcript from our partnered university. Usually, the transcript can be requested for a small additional fee, typically between $20-$50 each. This transcript can be applied towards a future degree program at the partnering institution, or it can be transferred to another college or university of your choice. To gain clarity on how these credits can be utilized, we suggest contacting the admissions office at the specific educational institution you plan on attending. In case you have additional questions, Dual Advisors are available to provide definitions, tips, and assist with your interactions.

By combining the pursuit of a college Associates degree with high school graduation, students can seize an exceptional opportunity. This simultaneous achievement is not only possible but also actively encouraged. Opting for an online accelerated degrees program ensures that completion can be accomplished within a year, catering to individuals who value efficiency. Nevertheless, it's worth noting that many dual credit students opt for a more flexible timeline of 2-3 years to ensure a balanced workload. Engaging with Dual Advisors will provide valuable insights into this possibility and how it aligns with personal goals.
