This program helps students fulfill high school graduation requirements while giving them a head start on their college education. The Kilgore College Dual Credit program offers high school students the chance to take college-level courses that meet graduation requirements or serve other academic and workforce training needs. Students can also take courses that go beyond high school requirements to meet their individual educational goals. Kilgore College classifies all high school students enrolled in college as Dual Credit students, as the decision of whether to grant high school credit for college courses is between the student and thehighschool. Students must consult with the high school counselor about which subjects are available and most appropriate. Area superintendents, principals, and counselors work with the Coordinators of Dual Credit to develop all DualCredit offerings on high school campuses. Dual Credit students may not enroll in developmental courses at KC. Even if high school credit will not be granted for a particular course , all policies in this reference guide and the Kilgore College Student Handbook still apply.  \nKILGORE COLLEGE DUAL CREDIT PROGRAM  \nNOTE: High School students should consult their high school counselor for all dual credit enrollment as the high school must approve all dual credit enrollment.
