Dual credit is offered to 9^th-12^th grade students who are enrolled in public, private, parochial or home schools.

Dual credit provides students the opportunity to obtain high school credits required for gradation and college credit simultaneously.  All interested students and parents are advised to attend orientation provided by their high school campus or through NCTC and seek advisement regarding classes through their HS counselor or administrator.   Dual credit students follow the same standards of admissions, enrollment and rigor as all NCTC students and therefor should prepare for the level or work and commitment required to attend college.
