St Gerard Catholic High School offers a Dual Credit program, whereby students earn college credit through our partnership with nearby St. Phillip’s College. Students may enroll in 2 courses per semester at NO charge to them, but are required to pay for textbooks and additional materials required by the professor at St. Phillip’s. Our students have 3 methods to earn college credit while enrolled at St. Gerard Catholic High School:
-
Via Online courses offered at St Phillip’s College.
-
Taking classes at St. Gerard Catholic High School with our faculty members, who are also adjunct faculty from St. Phillip’s.
-
Taking courses on site at St. Phillip’s. Students will not leave St. Gerard during the school day, so classes may only be taken on site outside of class time.
Prerequisites:
-
Students must take the Accuplacer test for $15.00 at St. Phillip’s. Placement in their courses is dependent on the Accuplacer test scores. Students may re-take the Accuplacer test in order to score higher, as students may not enroll in certain courses if their Accuplacer test scores are not in accordance with St. Phillip’s standards.
-
Parental consent form must be signed.
-
Courses must be approved through St. Gerard Catholic High School’s Guidance Counselor’s office.
-
A current High School transcript must be provided to St. Phillip’s College, which is issued through our guidance counselor’s office.
-
Students must be fully enrolled at St. Gerard Catholic High School with no outstanding balance of tuition or fees.
