WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

Dual Credit Student

A Dual Credit Student is a student who is enrolled in a community college or state institution of higher learning while enrolled in high school and who is receiving both high school credit and college credit for postsecondary coursework. The student receives credit for coursework regardless of the course location (high school campus, postsecondary campus, or online). One three-hour postsecondary course is equal to one high school Carnegie unit. Upon completion of each Dual Credit course, the student will receive the appropriate number of college credits (college credit is reserved until after high-school graduation) as listed in the Holmes Community College Bulletin and will receive credit that will also be applied to meet high school graduation requirements as verified by the high school principal.

Dual Enrolled Student

A Dual Enrolled Student is a student who is enrolled in a community college or state institution of higher learning while enrolled in high school. The student receives only postsecondary credit for coursework. Upon completion of each Dual Enrollment course, the student will receive the appropriate number of college credits (college credit is reserved until after high-school graduation) as listed in the Holmes Community College Bulletin. 


MATT (Mississippi Articulation and Transfer Tool) shows which courses will transfer from Holmes for each academic program taught at Mississippi’s eight public universities.
