Tips for a successful application

We recommend:

  • Students meet with their high school counselor in Grade 10 or 11 to discuss your interest in dual credit
  • Students complete English 12 as soon as possible (last semester of Grade 11, before the dual credit program starts, if possible).
  • Students interested in science-based courses such as Biology, Chemistry and or Calculus, have completed the appropriate Grade 12 pre-requisites before starting your courses at CNC.

  • Earn credits for high school and post-secondary at once.
  • Start college with a lighter course load.
  • Build confidence in your future after graduation.
