Advanced Programs

With 16 Advanced Placement courses and 8 Dual Credit classes through Lone Star College, Concordia’s upper level curriculum provides plentiful opportunities to learn at an advanced level and get a head start on college credits while still in high school. Advanced Placement classes may give college credit depending on test results and Dual Credit classes can earn either three or four credit hours each when class requirements are met. In addition to the benefits of saving money on college tuition and earning a college degree more quickly, these higher level classes help students dig deeper into subjects that interest them, ease the transition between high school and college, and develop the academic skills of problem solving and time management needed in college, all while being taught by highly qualified teachers with advanced degrees.
