Dual Credit Checklist
Dual Credit is a form of concurrent enrollment that allows a student to take certain courses at San Jacinto College that earn BOTH college and high school credit.
Early Admission is a form of concurrent enrollment that allows a student to take courses for college credit only. Students pay 100% of tuition and fees.
To be accepted for enrollment in college-level courses, you must have appropriate academic qualifications, a high level of motivation, and adequate time to devote to studying. In order to enroll in the Dual Credit/Early Admission Program, you must:
- Be a High School Student. Public, private, or home school students can qualify.
- Have permission from your high school counselor or designee.

The TSI assessment is the instrument used by all Texas public institutions of higher education for assessing a student’s readiness to enroll in freshman-level academic coursework. It measures a student’s competencies in reading, writing, and mathematics.
Any 9th – 12th grade student may satisfy TSI requirements with one of the below listed TSI Exemptions, or with a High School TSI Waiver. Students can use a combination of exemptions/waivers. Partial exemptions/waivers are also possible. Students who do not have qualifying exemptions/waivers must take the TSI assessment prior to enrollment in any academic course requiring college readiness in reading, writing, or mathematics.
*Skill levels required for Career and Technical courses vary. Please contact Ms. Yates at DPHS for details. She can be reached at 832-668-7263 and [email protected]
