Student testimonials

  • The whole experience here changed my life. If it weren't for this, I would have probably dropped out. It's definitely a nice feeling.

  • Here, you're more focused on your goals, we're having fun, we're learning, there's no bullying. I met a lot of new college students. Unlike high school, you're not feeling like you're being judged. There's a lot of individuality.

  • Dual credit is an opportunity for me to experience a college-like class and prepare me for when I go to college.

  • It’s a great privilege having the college reach out to me before I reach out to the college.

  • The dual credit program is a great way for students to learn in a post-secondary type environment.  It enables us to feel and prepare for life after high school.

  • I didn’t think that I would be able to adjust in a college environment, but I adjusted and I liked it.  I was going to school every day and I was passing all my classes.  This program honestly changed my life.
