Dual Credit
Magnolia High School Dual Credit
What is dual credit?
Magnolia High School partners with Lone Star College-Tomball to offer dual credit courses to high school students to earn college credit prior to graduation. Students can begin taking dual credit courses during the junior year of high school. Dual credit courses require students to meet qualification/eligibility through test scores prior to registration. Students begin the process for entering the dual credit program the spring semester prior to taking the courses. Deadlines will be given to students throughout the process, and it is the student's responsibility to make sure they meet deadlines. Grades earned through dual credit courses will be reflected on the high school transcript and LSC college transcript.
Please review the following resources for more information about dual credit.
