Application Process for the Dual Credit program
Please download and complete these forms to get started in applying for the upcoming school year, 2021-2022. Begin the application process by applying to NLC through ApplyTX.org. The last few pages of the attachment provide the instructions for applying to NLC. Make sure to select the appropriate semester for which you will be entering the program.
Reach out to me at aphillips@scuc.txed.net if you have any questions as you complete the process.
Deadlines for each of the steps of the application process:
1. Apply through ApplyTX.org -- Feb. 12
Once the application is complete, there is a turnaround time of 3-5 business days for NLC to receive the application and provide Banner IDs, passwords/logins to high school coordinator to provide to students. Plan for this turnaround time and work ahead of the deadline.
2 Complete both forms and return or email to aphillips@scuc.txed.net -- Feb. 22
Once the student receives the Banner ID, he/she can complete the forms and return to me.
3. Complete modules -- Feb. 26
I will email each student, who successfully applies and completes the forms, information on completing the modules.
4. March 16: TSI testing* is scheduled for those who need qualifying scores.
If testing is necessary for Reading/Writing and/or Math, we will schedule either an in-person on campus TSI testing session or issue a voucher so that the student can TSI test virtually.
*Students who qualify based on their PSAT/SAT scores will not need to TSI test. We are planning to schedule TSI testing on campus for students who need to TSI test for Reading/Writing and/or Math.
Please make sure to sign up for DC courses through your counselor and complete the process if interested in taking DC courses for the upcoming year.
