State Dual Credit

Statewide dual credit (SDC) classes are college-level courses taught at the high school level by trained high-school teachers. Each course has prerequisites, which can be found in the Scholar's Prep Guide.

All students enrolled in a statewide dual credit course take the online challenge exam, which is used to assess mastery of the postsecondary-level learning objectives.

Students which meet or exceed the exam ‘cut score’ receive college credit that can be applied to any Tennessee public postsecondary institution.
