The Portland Community College Dual Credit program is a program in which high school students can earn "dual credit" (high school and college credit for the same course) for advanced level courses. These college level courses are taught at the high school by high school teachers and are considered to be part of a college degree or certificate program. They provide an opportunity for students to transition smoothly from high school to college in a non-duplicative program of study. Articulated courses help shorten time-to-completion of a degree as well as save money for students and parents. 

To earn college credit, eligible students must complete a PCC Application and Dual Credit Registration Form on-line. Students should see their dual credit classroom teacher for instructions. There is no fee for PCC credit options. Savings to students (and their parents!) are considerable. Some students earn a term's worth of credits or more. Credit is transferable to other colleges following the same guidelines for transfer credits as other PCC courses.

This program is currently on hold due to funding issues at Pacific University. We hope to bring it back in the future.

FGHS in conjunction with Pacific University offers the Tualatin Academy to sophomores through seniors for all language courses, and juniors and seniors for all other courses. Students may take up to one course per year at Pacific University. The tuition is free; however, students must meet selection requirements, pay any lab or related fees, purchase textbooks or other required materials, and provide their own transportation. Courses available are only those courses not offered at FGHS and are contingent upon available space, and approval by Pacific. Interested students should see a counselor or administrator to apply. Information on Tualatin Academy can be found at:

https://www.pacificu.edu/academics/academic-support/advising-center/academic-advising/tualatin-academy

For semester college hours, 4 semester college hours is equal to 1.0 high school credits and 2 semester college hours is equal to 0.5 high school credits.

3. Credit may be considered from the following:
