Step One: Make a Plan

Before you start, talk to your high school counselor about the following:

1. Check your school day availability

Review your schedule for availability to attend TCC courses.

2. Choose your Dual Credit Program

We offer a number of pathways for high school students to earn college credit and degrees. If you haven't already explored the programs available with TCC's Dual Credit Programs take some time to explore the following pathways:

• Dual Enrollment
• High School Plus One
• Dual Credit to College Degree
• Degrees in Applied Science in High School (DASH)

3. Determine Which Courses to Take

Review the High School Grad Requirements to select your courses. Your TCC courses will be recorded on both your college and high school transcripts.

College courses have limited space. TCC reserves seats in section-600 courses for high school students. Check if the courses you want are offered in a section-600 course before you enroll.

Note: High school students cannot take zero-level, physical education or co-requisite courses. You must meet all prerequisite requirements for a course. Your enrollment will be processed according to your completed college credit hours in the order it is received.

Section-600 Course Benefits

• No online fees
• Early alerts to address student performance
• Some have free books

4. Ensure Eligibility

Ask your high school counselor for your "unofficial" high school transcript (electronic version) and your schedule availability to attend college courses (days/times).

Check your admission eligibility

5. Discuss Estimated Cost 

Speak to your high school counselor or a Dual Credit team member about the estimated cost and your district's fee and book waivers.

Step Two: Apply for Admission

This is for new students only. New students must be admitted to TCC before they can log in to the portal to enroll in classes. Students only need to complete admission once.

1. Gather documents

• If you have a Social Security number (SSN), be sure you have it ready. A SSN is not required for individuals who have not been issued one.
• Save your “unofficial” high school transcript as a PDF on your computer.
• Save any test score sheets (ACT, SAT, PSAT10, PSAT-NMSQ, pre-ACT) as a PDF on your computer.

2. Complete the TCC online college admission application

Apply now to be admitted in time for 2026 Summer and Fall enrollment.

• Upload your high school transcript and any test score sheets into the online admission form
• Declare a major (if you are unsure, begin with Liberal Arts/General Education. You can always change this later).
• Provide a personal email address that you check often (not a high school email address). TCC will contact you at this address with the next steps.
• If you are notified that you do not meet admission eligibility, you may take an on-campus/residual ACT once you receive your T Number
• After you are notified that you are admitted, you may now check enrollment eligibility.

Step Three: Enroll in Classes

This is for admitted students only. You must enroll in classes again each semester.

1. Review Enrollment Portal Instruction Videos

• Student Enrollment Portal Instructions
• Parent Enrollment Portal Instructions

2. Log into the Dual Credit Enrollment Portal

3. Check Your Progress

• Check the registration status progress bar in the enrollment portal. It will indicate who currently has your request: parent, counselor, or TCC enrollment.
• Check your TCC email. You’ll be notified as your enrollment request routes or if TCC needs additional information to process.
• Check your portal communication center for messages from TCC. You can also leave messages for TCC.

Step Four: Confirm your Schedule

1. Check your schedule in MyTCC
2. For more information go to your Starfish Dashboard
3. Review your course syllabus on Blackboard
