Dual Credit

Brazosport College

Juniors and Seniors, you can start earning college credit before graduating from high school. Brazosport College enrolls eligible high school students through the Early Enrollment Program, allowing them to take up to two college courses per semester while in high school.

Students earn both high school and college credit by taking classes at Brazosport College campus either during school hours (first of last period) or in the evening. Internet courses also are available. At Brazosport High School some classes are offered on the high school campus.

Students may also take college classes for college credit only.

Students reap many benefits by taking college classes:

Earn both high school and college credit with one class
Save money by earning college credit at a much reduced cost compared to a four year college or university
Begin the transition to college through valuable experience with college life and responsibilities

A list of courses approved for dual credit may be found in the BISD Course Selection Guide and the BISD/BC Dual credit/Concurrent Enrollment Handbook, available in the Guidance Office at each high school campus. Interest students should consult with their guidance counselor and with Mrs. Phillips, the BC/BISD shared counselor, at the high school. Students enrolled in the dual credit program are responsible for the total cost of tuition, fees, and books. Scholarships and grants are available for students who are enrolled in a minimum of three college credit hours per semester. For information, contact the Brazosport College Financial Aid Department.

For more information see the BISD Course Selection Guide or contact the Guidance Office at your high school.
