AP & Dual Credit

Dual Credit

Seattle Christian School has partnered with Colorado Christian University, Northwest Nazarene University, and Northwest University to offer Dual Credit for several high school courses. Students can earn college credit as they successfully complete their Seattle Christian courses.

Northwest Nazarene and Northwest are both accredited universities. Students who complete each course with a grade of C or higher will earn college credit which is transferable to most public and private colleges and universities across the country. Course registration and payment is managed through each university.

In addition to the advantage of graduating from high school with college credit, courses offered through these universities come at a fraction of the cost of regular college tuition:

Northwest Nazarene University

SCS Classes: AP Literature or English Lit (12), Chemistry, and Civics

NNU Class/Course Codes:

  • ENGL 1040 - Intro to Academic Writing (3 credits)
  • CHEM 1200/1200L - Principles of General Chemistry & Lab (4 credits)
  • POLS 1010 - American National Politics (3 credits)

NNU dual credit courses cost $75/credit and are paid by the family to NNU.

Northwest University

SCS Classes: Precalculus and Statistics

NU Class/Course Codes:

  • MATH 1203 - Precalculus (3 credits)
  • MATH 1313 - Introduction to Statistics (3 credits)

Northwest dual credit courses cost $65/credit and are billed by SCS to each family.

Dual Enrollment

SCS has partnered with Grand Canyon University, giving our students access to GCU Dual Enrollment classes. Dual Enrollment is an opportunity to take GCU classes online, taught by GCU faculty, within a set timeline – unlike our Dual Credit classes that are taught by SCS faculty during the course of our school year. This partnership will allow students to earn college credit while exploring their passions and areas of interest, tailoring their educational experience during Junior & Senior year.
