CTE / Dual College Credit 2024-2025

DUAL COLLEGE CREDIT courses are a competency–based direct credit option for specific college courses. 

This option allows students to enroll in dual credit high school courses and receive transcripted college credit for those classes upon completion of the college-approved competencies. The following Dual College Credit courses are offered in various high schools and are currently being articulated to a college as listed below.  Articulations are renewed at the end of each school year for the next. 2025-2026 agreements will be published in Fall 2025. 

All dual credit programs are marked on the official high school transcript, whether the student earns college credit or not. Students must request and submit official college transcripts for earned college credit(s) to be transferred to colleges they apply to. More information on each program can be found on the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) Dual Credit Programs webpage.  

Please note that credits earned through the CTE Dual Credit program are not automatically transcribed to a college transcript. Student must follow the steps to transcribe credit by the deadline in order to receive college credit.

For Clark College - June 30th in the year the course is completed. 

For Lower Columbia College - Within five years of course completion.

To transcribe your credit to a Clark College transcript:

1. Register in SERS during the year you took the course.

2. Apply for admissions to Clark College

3. Send a request to have your CTE Dual Credits transcribed to dualcredit@clark.edu. Include your ctcLink SID and a list of the classes you would like to have transcribed. The process takes about two weeks and you will be notified when it is complete.

If you plan to attend another college or university rather than Clark College, then you will need to send your Clark College transcript to your college of choice after the credits are transcribed.

Order your Clark College transcripts through Parchment.
