Early College at Hobart High School What is dual credit and Early College? In Indiana, ‘dual credit’ is the term given to courses in which high school students have the opportunity to earn both high school and college credits in the same course. Dual credit courses are taught by high school faculty, college faculty, or adjunct college faculty either at the high school, at the college or university, or sometimes through online courses or distance education. At a minimum, all college Core Transfer Library (CTL) courses will meet the general education or free elective requirements of undergraduate degree programs and a significant majority of CTL courses will generally count as one-to-one equivalents to courses taught at the receiving campus. Many CTL courses will also count for specific course requirements in degree programs. What is ASAP? ASAP is an accelerated associates degree program where students receive their Associates Degree in 11 months (June-May) following high school graduation. Students are selected for the program based on GPA and attendance, ASAP application, and interviewing process. The application for the program can be found at www.ivytech.edu/ASAP. There are 3 various program tracks that students can select from while in the program: Business Administration, Psychology, and Liberal Arts. Once students complete the program, they have the ability to continue their education as a Junior at a 4-year institution in order to graduate with their Bachelor Degree in only 2 additional years. Thus, this is a 1+2 program where students can obtain their Associate and Bachelor Degrees in 3 years. 12

In most cases (99.5%) the courses at Ivy Tech are free. There are a few exceptions to higher level courses that cannot be exempt from cost. Your counselor can tell you if a course is not free. 13

The Indiana College Core is a Technical Certificate (College Credential) that can be earned by taking dual credit and traditional classes with Ivy Tech through Hobart University. The Indiana College Core consists of 30 semester hours of credit in general education classes such as Math, Science, History, English, etc., the completion of which at one public institution (Ivy Tech) means it can transfer as a block and count as satisfying the Indiana College Core equivalent at the receiving public Indiana institution. Public Indiana institutions include IU (all sites), Purdue (all sites), Ball State, IUPUI, University of Southern Indiana, and Indiana State University. This 30-credit hour block of courses is equal to a full year of college coursework, meaning any student that completes the Indiana College Core can cut roughly a year-off of college if they earn the Indiana College Core. The Indiana College Core is also half (30 credits) of the credits needed to earn an Associate Degree in Liberal Arts or General Studies (60 credit degrees) at Ivy Tech. The requirements needing to be satisfied to be awarded the Indiana College Core at Ivy Tech are:  30 Credit Hours must be earned from classes offered on the Indiana College Core.  Students must earn at minimum 3 credit hours in each of the 6 categories on the Indiana College Core (Written Communication, Speaking and Listening, Quantitative Reasoning, Scientific Ways of Knowing, Social and Behavioral Ways of Knowing, and Humanistic and Artistic Ways of Knowing).  The maximum credit hours for each of the 6 categories allowed is 12 credit hours (ie., even if a student earns 15 credit hours in the Scientific Ways of Knowing category, only 12 of those credit hours will count towards the 30 credits needed to earn the Indiana College Core).  At minimum, 15 of the 30 credit hours needed to earn the Indiana College Core must come from Ivy Tech dual credit courses or traditional classes to meet Ivy Tech residency requirements.  Students must earn, at minimum, a 2.0 GPA in their dual credit classes that are part of the Indiana College Core in order to be awarded the Indiana College Core . 14

Two Years of College Credit at HHS! In order to earn an Associate degree, students MUST complete the 30 hours within the Indiana College Core Technical Certificate as well as 30 additional credits. Visit page 15 for a complete listing of the Indiana College Core course requirements. Hobart University students are able to graduate with an Associate Degree of General Studies just by taking dual credit courses in high school! In order to obtain this, the students are required to earn 60 college credits (30 of those credits coming from the Indiana College Core) with a minimum 2.0 College GPA (average grade of a C in all courses). This prepares students to transfer into four-year universities on the pathway to a Bachelor’s Degree, or students can move directly into the workforce. The Associate of General Studies allows the most flexibility in terms of student electives, as 22 of the 60 required credits can come from any dual credit classes, including the PNW dual credit classes! Two of the required courses are:  IVYT 111 – Student Success: This course provides students with an overview of skills and strategies necessary to successfully complete a degree or certificate from Ivy Tech Community College and to transfer to a four-year institution. Students focus on developing an individualized transfer plan focused on reaching their educational, career, and life objectives. This course is completed during the 9th grade year in Preparing for College and Careers.  GENS 279 – Capstone Course: This course provides a culminating experience designed to demonstrate a student’s mastery of information literacy; ethical and responsible behavior; political, social and environmental responsibility; and diversity awareness, both in general and in the student’s area of interest. This course may re- quire a research project, presentation, and/or portfolio. This course is completed during the 12th grade year in Interactive Media.
