Benefits

Loyola's Dual Credit Program offers several benefits beyond earning college credit while still in high school. Here are a few:

  • Eases your transition to college by preparing you for the demands of a college-level course 
  • Allows you to begin your freshman year of college with credits while you also earn credits toward high school graduation
  • Gives you the confidence to succeed in college, even before you begin
  • Allows you to accumulate college credits that may help you to graduate early
  • Exposes you to academically challenging material while in the familiar surroundings of your high school classroom
  • Demonstrates to college boards that you are ready to complete college-level work
