Courses offered in partnership with area high schools are considered dual credit. These courses are offered during the regular school day and often taught or monitored by high school teachers. Credit is issued from the high school and the college.
Search for course offerings by high school to see what classes are available.
JWCC also offers courses that students can enroll in outside of the normal high school schedule. These courses are taught at a JWCC campus location or online. College credit will be issued once the course is successfully completed. Credits can be transferred to another academic institution or used when the student seeks a degree from JWCC.
Courses are available during the summer as well. This allows students to earn college credit and fulfill general education requirements for a college degree.
Final course registration is contingent upon parent/guardian, guidance counselor, and JWCC approval.
JWCC credits transfer nationwide!
Discuss the transfer of courses to your chosen institution with a JWCC advisor and see how credits transfer from JWCC to other colleges at Transferology.com
Once coursework is completed, email JWCC advising to have an official copy of your transcript sent to the selected college or university. No fee is charged for transcripts.
In most cases, books are not included. A list of required texts per course can be found via the JWCC Bookstore.
Bills will be sent in July for fall courses and November for spring courses. Payment is expected ten days prior to the start of class.
