Additional types of Students
We welcome many other additional types such as Military and Veteran students, adult students who are 25 years or older but are attending college for the first time, students who are interested in dual credit, and students who are looking for fully online programs.
Dual Credit
The Dual Credit program at the University of Houston-Victoria (UHV) provides an opportunity for high school students to earn college credit while still in high school.
Students who successfully complete dual credit courses earn both high school and college credit simultaneously. This allows them to get a head start on their college education and accumulate credits that can be applied toward a degree program at UHV or transferred to other colleges and universities.
UHV's Dual Credit program offers a wide range of course options across various disciplines, including English, mathematics, science, social sciences, and more. This enables students to explore their academic interests, fulfill general education requirements, and gain exposure to college-level coursework.

Participation
Participating in the Dual Credit program can lead to significant cost savings for students and their families. UHV offers reduced tuition rates for dual credit courses, making college education more affordable and accessible.
Participation in the Dual Credit program may have specific eligibility requirements and enrollment procedures, which can vary depending on the high school and UHV's policies. It's recommended to consult with your high school counselor or UHV's Dual Credit program coordinator for detailed information regarding course availability, registration, and any prerequisites or qualifications needed.

We provide a range of academic support services, including tutoring, academic advising, career counseling, and access to library resources.
