Dual Credit and AP at Luther High
At Luther, we offer courses for advanced students that can net them college credit in a variety of ways. We offer online dual credit, in-person dual credit (called transcripted credit), and Advanced Placement (AP) courses (in-person, with an AP test required for credit value).
Online Dual Credit
Our online dual credit program is currently offered through Bethany Lutheran College, with other colleges currently being explored to add to our suite of available courses. Bethany’s dual credit courses offer high school students great savings in time and money by providing concurrent enrollment in high school and college through online classes taught by Bethany Lutheran College faculty. High school students take college courses that can be accessed at any time during their high school day or in the convenience of their home.

Transcripted Dual Credit
Transcripted dual credit credit courses are dual credit courses typically from Western Technical College taught at Luther High School by qualified high school teachers. Once students enroll and successfully complete the course with a C or better, they will receive credit from Luther High School and Western Technical College or another partner college. These courses are free of charge and students will complete paperwork with the college in the fall of each semester.
Students can request their college transcript at the completion of the course and many credits transfer to other college campuses. Current Luther High classes that will convert to college credit through the transcripted credit agreement. (These are subject to change without notice.)
