I saw this release from NYSED the other day. New York State wants to create a standard set of policies and procedures for schools implementing Dual Credit programs. A Dual Credit class is a college class taken by high school students. The high school offering the class does so in partnership with some college or university. A student who passes the class receives both high school and college credit. They in fact, get a transcript from the partner college with the course or courses they've taken.
