Selecting Courses

To get dual credit (high school credit) the course must be part of our dual credit agreement. View the course guide for list of acceptable classes. If you have questions about course selection, please reach out to your campus counselor.

Adding Courses to Your Transcript

Effective Summer 2023 - The practice for adding courses to your transcript (for courses taken on your own at TCC) is being adjusted. 

If a student is seeking credit on the high school side, the student will still need to provide a college transcript to the high school counselor or registrar indicating the grade earned for the course completed. 

Students will be allowed to provide a numerical grade from their TCC Canvas course history.  Students that choose to submit their numerical grade, should include that with the transcript provided to the high school counselor or registrar.

If a student does not provide a numerical grade, it will be converted based on the grading scale in the course guide listed below:

Letter GRade	numerical score
A+	98
A	95
A-	92
B+	88
B	85
B-	82
C+	78
C	75
C-	72
D+	68
D	65
D-	62
F	55

Students who have already submitted transcripts for dual credit courses this summer, may still submit the numerical grade and it will be updated accordingly.  

If you have any questions in regards to the change in practice, please contact Jennifer Castrillo at JenniferCastrillo@misdmail.org. 

Eligibility

Before you can register, you must have completed the following steps:

1. Fill out application - Upon completion of your application, you will receive an e-mail from TCC with your ID#. This can take up to 10 days. Once you have your ID#, you will be able to set up your Webadvisor Account.
    
2. Complete the Pre-Assessment Activity (PAA) - Once the PAA is complete, you are ready to TSI test. 
    
3. Have required TSI scores - If you have not TSI tested, you will not be able to register until testing is complete.
   • NOTE: You can also check to see if you qualify for an SAT/ACT exemption. If you have qualifying scores, you will need to do the following:
     • Have your scores sent to TCC using the code 6834. SAT scores | ACT scores
     • Email a copy of your score report along with your TCC ID# and the receipt showing the scores were officially sent to TCC to southeast.registrar@tccd.edu.

Registering for Courses

After receiving eligible TSI scores, students can register. Students will register for courses with Dual Credit Canvas Course. (NOTE: Read the registration page instructions thoroughly. Help session information is also located here.)

Registration Tip:

• Do not pick a period in which you are likely to have a conflict. (For example, if you know you have Band during third period, do not register for a TCC course at that time.)

Required Orientation for New Students

All NEW dual credit students are required to complete dual credit orientation. If you do not complete this orientation, you will be dropped from your courses. (Summer/Fall 2023 Orientation instructions will be available in the spring.)
