LSC-CyFair offers high school students chance at college credit

Lone Star College-CyFair (LSC-CyFair) and the Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District are co-hosting dual credit information sessions for high school students on Wednesday, March 30, and Tuesday, April 12.

High school juniors and seniors will be able to get all the details about how to earn high school and college credit in classes such as English, biology, math, history, psychology, economics, speech and more. The sessions will include information such as who qualifies, what courses are available, the application process, benefits of dual credit as well as a question and answer period.

The classes are transferable to most public universities and colleges. Courses are available during two summer sessions at LSC-CyFair, Monday, June 6, through Tuesday, July 12, and Thursday, July 14, through Thursday, Aug. 18. Tuition is free, though some fees do apply.

“Most dual credit courses take place at the high schools,” said LSC-CyFair’s Vice President for Student Learning Dr. Feleccia Moore-Davis. “This summer students will be immersed in the college community, which has significant benefits including our state-of-the-art facilities, great faculty and support services.”

The information sessions are set for 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on the LSC-CyFair campus at 9191 Barker Cypress. No reservations are needed.
