Dual Credit

What are Dual Credit Programs?

Ministry-approved Dual Credit programs allow you - while you're still in high school - to take college or apprenticeship courses that count towards both:

  • your high school diploma (Ontario Secondary School Diploma, or OSSD), and
  • a postsecondary certificate, diploma, degree, or Certificate of Apprenticeship.

Benefits of participating in a Dual Credit program

  • Earn up to four college-delivered credits towards your high school diploma.
  • Make friends and experience college life - setting yourself up for a successful transition to college.
  • Explore educational pathways and career opportunities.
  • It’s FREE!
