Role of Dual Credit Faculty

As a Dual Credit student, you will be supported by Dual Credit faculty. The role of the faculty is to deliver course content, while working closely with your secondary school teacher to ensure your success in the course. Taking a Dual Credit course gives you a great opportunity to adjust to the college learning environment and grants you access to college resources and supports. At the end of your course, your Dual Credit faculty will ensure your high school teacher and school board receive your final grades. You can also view your grades through your student account on D2L.

Student Expectations

  • Attend Dual Credit classes and show up on time
  • Submit all assignments on time to the best of your ability
  • Come prepared to class (e.g. books, pens, pencils, personal protective equipment)
  • Come to class with a positive attitude: be ready to learn
  • Meet expectations of your course as outlined by your faculty
  • If you will be absent or ill please email your College instructor to let them know ASAP
MISSED ASSIGNMENTS, DEADLINES AND TESTS   If you have missed any class work, homework assignments and/or tests please consult with your College faculty. By missing assignments or tests or not handing your work in on time, you could be jeopardizing both your college credit and your high school credit. If you know you will be absent for a Dual Credit class, please contact your College faculty before the class by email as soon as possible, to make other arrangements. Failing to make arrangements with your faculty before an assignment is due may result in a mark of zero.  ATTENDANCE AND PUNCTUALITY Attendance is closely related to success. If you have missed three or more classes, you may not be eligible to receive the College credit.  TEXTBOOKS AND SUPPLIES As a Dual Credit student you do not pay out of pocket for any of the costs related with your courses. Textbooks, tools and materials that are provided by the Dual Credit program become the property and responsibility of the student for the duration of the course and should be handed back in good condition for reuse by future students.  COURSE WITHDRAWAL If you are unsure that you will be able to complete the Dual Credit course, please let your high school teacher or College faculty know right away. Dual Credit students are required to complete a Dual Credit Drop Form. Without an official withdrawal, you will be considered as a registered student until the end of the course. The completed course drop form is a guarantee that you will not receive a zero as a final mark. The zero will stay permanently on your College record.  Note: You will receive a transcript if you drop a Dual Credit course with a mark of “W” for withdrawal. This will not impact admission to a post-secondary school or your GPA.  SNOW DAYS In the event of school bus cancellation due to a snow day, the Dual Credit class will be cancelled by the College faculty for that day and may be rescheduled in collaboration with the secondary school teacher.
