Dual Enrollment Course
AP courses and college board courses both rely on test scores in order to earn college credits. These require the student to get a certain grade on the final exam in order to receive college credits. It awards credits based on student outcome for one assessment rather than the entire body of work and effort. Dual Enrollment Courses do not depend on a standardized test score to award college credits. They are earned if the student earns a C or better in the class. It should be noted however that not all colleges will accept dual enrollment courses for transfer credits no matter the grade.
