Partnering High School Dual Credit Opportunities

Dual credit enables qualified high school students to take University-level courses taught by qualified high school instructors.  Students simultaneously receive academic credit for the course from both the high school and MSSU.  

Students may enroll in dual credit and dual enrollment courses during the same term.  If your high school is not listed below as a partnering institution or if your high school is listed below, but does not offer dual credit for the course you are interested in, please check out our dual enrollment opportunities. 

The Courses tab in mssu.dualenroll.com will show you courses available for dual credit at your high school.

Dual Enrollment Opportunities

Dual enrollment enables qualified high school students to take University-level courses that are taught by an MSSU Faculty member while simultaneously enrolled in the high school and MSSU.  Credit is typically  only awarded at the University level; however, students may be eligible to earn high school credit for such courses with approval from the high school district.  Dual enrollment opportunities at MSSU will likely be delivered to the student through a distance learning delivery mode (online).  Students wishing to take a dual enrollment course on the campus of Missouri Southern State University should consult the Class Schedules section of the University website, and then consult with the Office of Academic Outreach for specific class availability.

Courses listed below are:

  • available to all eligible Dual Credit/Dual Enrollment students.
  • delivered to students online.
  • taught by MSSU Faculty.

Students should check with their high school to see if high school credit will be given for courses in this section.
