Attention--Dual Credit
If you plan to enroll in a dual credit course for the 2022-2023 school year, and this will be your first time taking a dual credit class, you will need to create an Apply Texas application. If you are currently enrolled in a Dual Credit course, you do NOT need to submit a new application.
