Students at Jefferson typically begin taking dual-credit classes in their junior year, though there are some opportunities to begin earlier - this means they have the opportunity to earn high school credit for courses at Jefferson while also earning college credits from one of our partner colleges for the same course. In general, the course expectations are the same, though students must complete the exit criteria for the college course to earn college credit.
