Dual Credit is a way for high school students to get high school and college credit for courses they take at their high school.
High school students who meet the eligibility criteria for the ARPA Grant will have an opportunity to express interest in receiving funds through a grant sign-up sheet that the Dual Credit Office will send to each dual credit classroom. Once the Dual Credit Office receives the sign-up sheet from the high schools, students will receive a link to complete the online scholarship application using their JJC student email account.
ARPA Grant recipients may receive up to $200 per semester to fund dual credit tuition. Students must apply for the ARPA Grant each semester. Since dual credit students are billed for tuition as soon as they are registered for classes, students who are eligible for the ARPA Grant should apply as soon as possible to avoid receiving billing notices in their JJC email account.
