Racer Academy at ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú

Dual credit courses are a great opportunity for students to get a taste of college and build confidence before coming to campus as a freshman. Your student can also get ahead in college work for a fraction of the cost!

At the same time, we want you to be aware of the costs and potential risks involved with not doing well in a college course while in High School. Remember, the grade your student earns will go on their college transcript and follow them to other institutions. Also, while there are scholarships available through the state of Kentucky, there still may be a cost associated with registering with dual credit.

Deadlines

With the help of their counselor, new students must submit their online application and transcript by:

• May 1st for the Fall semester (August)

• December 1st for the Spring semester (January)

They will receive an e-mail immediately after they register titled "Admission Decision." This will contain everything they need to help them get logged in for the first time! 

Registration

Registration Request forms will formally indicate your student's registration request. We will register them for the course on our end. This form is due two weeks before the start of each semester. To ensure they get their first pick of classes, it should be submitted a couple months before the semester begins. 

Cost and Billing

Racer Academy courses cost $95 per credit hour. are required for some courses and will be an additional cost. As soon as we register your student for a course, they will be able to access their bill on the Money tab in their myGate Account.
