Earn College Credit in High School

Atlantic Cape Community College is proud to partner with local high schools to give students the opportunity to earn college credit while still enrolled in high school. Our Early College programs, such as dual credit, concurrent courses, articulated credit and associate degree pathways, allow students to earn college credits at reduced tuition, saving both time and money. These opportunities provide a head start toward completing an associate degree and earning transferable credits to a four-year college/university.

Dual Credit

Dual credit lets you earn both high school and college credit at the same time. You take approved courses at your high school, and if you pass, you get credit on your Atlantic Cape transcript too. It’s a smart way to save time and money while getting a jump start on college. Check with your school to see which classes qualify.
