Dual Credit courses are offered in a variety of subject areas including math, science, English, economics, history, government and a wide variety of technical courses. Classes meet on ECC campus or the high school campus, and are taught by college faculty or qualified high school instructors.

Dual Credit academic courses are transferable to all Texas public colleges and Universities as well as many private and out-of-state institutions. Students planning to transfer to a private or out-of-state college or university should check with the receiving school to confirm transferability of credits from El Centro College.
