Dual Credit Program Eligibility

Thomas More’s Dual Credit Program offers eligible high school students the opportunity to take college classes with Thomas More University at their high school or Thomas More University-approved sites.

Students are eligible for this program if they meet the following requirements:

  • High school juniors and seniors:
    • Must have a high school unweighted GPA of 3.0 or higher. 
    • Must meet any course prerequisites.
  • High school sophomores:
    • Must have a high school unweighted GPA of 3.0 or higher.
    • Must meet any course prerequisites.
    • Must only take courses offered at their high school unless granted an exception.  

Students must complete a Thomas More Dual Credit application (online application and high school transcript). Test scores (ACT, SAT, and/or AP) must be provided if required as a pre-requisite to a course. Completed dual credit application packets do not guarantee admission into the program or eligibility for any specific course. All submitted applications will be reviewed by Thomas More’s Dual Credit program for admission eligibility. 

Continued Enrollment:

Once enrolled in the Dual Credit Program, to register for subsequent semesters a student must maintain a cumulative Thomas More University GPA of 2.0. This requirement is set up to assist students in meeting the goal of successfully earning college credit at the high school level.
