Frequently Asked Questions

What is Dual Credit?
Dual credit is a program specifically designed for high school students who are ready for the challenge of college academics. The program enables high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors to have the opportunity to earn both high school and college credit.

How is Dual Credit offered?
Bismarck State College delivers courses to high school students through a variety of ways:
  • On BSC's campus
  • Interactive Video Network
  • Online
  • Courses taught at the high school by BSC faculty
  • Courses taught at the high school by BSC full-time or adjunct faculty
How much will it cost?
Dual Credit tuition is per credit hour and varies on the student taking the course on BSC's campus versus taking the course at the student's high school.  Click Tuition & Fees for more information.

Will the college credit I earn transfer to other colleges/universities?
