CICS - Northtown Campus – City Colleges of Chicago Dual Enrollment

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Dual enrollment courses offer high school students great savings in time and money by providing both high school and college credit through the City Colleges of Chicago. Northtown students enroll in a semester-long college course that is taken after school or on the weekend on Chicago City College campus or online. Students will have two free periods built into their schedule to allow them time to travel to college campus or complete assignments. Students can take one dual enrollment class during the summer, fall, and/or spring term of their junior and senior year. Students must earn a “C” or better to earn college credit. Students will work with their counselor to determine the best college class for them to either replace Northtown graduation requirements or elective options. Some examples include…  _You can speak with your counselor to learn more information on how to sign up for dual enrollment classes. Note: If a student withdraws from a Chicago City College Dual Credit or Dual Enrollment course or earns below a “C” grade, the student must meet with Northtown’s Dual Enrollment Coordinator to discuss whether the student can enroll in a future Dual Credit or Dual Enrollment course._
