College Credits
Save thousands of dollars by earning FREE college credits, while attending your high school classes at COT!
College credits may be earned in three ways:
Dual Enrollment
High school students are enrolled at the sponsoring post-secondary institution and BRCOT at the same time, earning credits at both. Upon completion of the course, students receive an academic transcript from the post-secondary school identical to the one received by college students who are physically attending that institution, and likewise, the credits are fully transferable to most other post-secondary schools.
Articulation Agreements
Just fancy words to explain an arrangement between the Center of Technology and various colleges and universities, where a successful completion of a class you have taken at BRCOT will count for college credit at that specific college. This means that if you attend a post-secondary institution which BRCOT has an agreement with, you will not have to retake classes that you already have taken...saving you time, energy, and money.
Advanced Standing Agreement
Offers high school students the opportunity to earn university/college credit(s) for their work during high school. Credits are earned after completing the high school program and passing a proficiency exam. Students will receive a transcript from the college or university (identical to the one received by college students). These credits are transferable (small processing fee) to many other post-secondary colleges and universities.
