Dual Credit for High School Students
CCU dual credit students have access to helpful online resources through WebAdvisor, CCU's online student portal. CCU dual credit students must order transcripts in order for them to be sent to universities.
Transferability of CCU Dual Credits
As a four-year liberal arts university accredited by The Higher Learning Commission, our credits transfer to many colleges and universities nationwide. Institutions, including CCU, differ on how they accept both AP and dual credits and can vary their policies from year to year and for various programs. Students should contact higher education institutions of interest regarding credit transfer, prior to registering for a dual credit course.
CCU will not offer refunds for course credits that do not transfer to higher education institutions.
Taking Dual Credit classes at your high school
Ask your guidance counselor about CCU dual credit courses when planning your academic year. Taking dual credit courses in high school helps you gain college credit, learn how to organize time, prepares you for college courses, and saves money.
To register for CCU Dual Credit courses, you must complete the Dual Credit Student Registration Form. Have your social security number and a credit card handy. Each dual credit course costs $200. Labs are included in the course fee and require no extra payment.
Drop/Withdraw forms are found on the Dual Credit Student Registration Form page. You must fill out the form, have it signed by a parent and school faculty/administrator, and email or fax it to CCU. If you want to drop a course, this must be done no later than the drop deadline.
A student may drop or withdraw from a course by returning to the Dual Credit Student Registration Form, and filling out the Drop/Withdrawal form. Drop/Withdraw forms can be mailed or faxed to CCU. Tuition will be returned dependent on the date of withdrawal. Withdrawing after the deadline for registration will result in no refund and a grade of W.
Access to student resources: WebAdvisor
As a dual credit student at CCU, you have access to helpful online resources through WebAdvisor, CCU’s online student portal. Through WebAdvisor, you have direct access to the CCU library, library databases, and bookstore. You can also view your class schedule, grades, and print your unofficial transcripts through WebAdvisor.
Before you can access WebAdvisor, you will need to set up a Digital Services Account (DSA) with CCU. To complete the DSA application, you will need your CCU student ID number, which will be provided to you by CCU. Be sure to indicate your student type as “Dual Credit.” During the DSA creation process, you will also set up your @students.ccu.edu email address.
