Dual Credit Program

UNT currently offers an online dual credit program for participating high schools.  Dual credit is a process by which a high school student enrolls in a college course and receives simultaneous credit from both the college and high school. By participating in such programs, students get a head start on earning credits toward a college degree, save money on the cost of higher education, and enter the workforce sooner.
