Â鶹ÊÓƵAPK

How Does it Work?

The credits you earn will transfer toward an associate's or bachelor's degree at Â鶹ÊÓƵAPK. In most cases, they will also transfer to other colleges.

• Credits earned from Â鶹ÊÓƵAPK are generally accepted in transfer by other colleges and universities provided you receive a grade of C or higher for each course you take.
• Each college has different guidelines, however. There is no guarantee that your credits will transfer toward a degree from every university to which you might apply in the future.

If you are admitted to our Advanced Study or Dual Credit Programs, you agree to abide by all university policies and procedures, including those for tuition and fee payment. Enrolling in this program does not commit you to attend Â鶹ÊÓƵAPK after you finish high school.

What's the Difference Between Advanced Study and Dual Credit?

The Advanced Study Program allows you to take in-person college courses at one of our Indiana campus locations.  The Dual Credit Program offers Â鶹ÊÓƵAPK coursework within your high school during the regular school day.
