Dual Credits

Did you know you can earn a high school credit and a college credit at the same time?

The dual credit program is an opportunity for students to attend Lambton, Fanshawe and/or Conestoga College and take a tuition free college course in a diploma or certificate program that also counts as an elective on their high school transcript.

Dual credits are intended for grade 12 students (grade 11 students may be eligible on an individual basis) in all pathways. Students will complete an application and an interview prior to acceptance in this program. The College Dual Credit Program may run in both semesters next year (to be determined by enrollment and space availability).

Want to know more, including what courses may be offered?

Attend the information session in the library immediately after announcements on Wednesday, March 31, or speak to Mr. Stryker in guidance.  

Course Selection Sheets and Waivers

Signed course selection sheets should have been handed in to the guidance office several weeks ago now. If you haven't done so, hand yours in immediately. Late submissions will be date stamped, and course availability may be affected.

If you wish to make changes to your course selection for next year, bring in a note from your parent or guardian describing the change. Any such preferential changes must be done by Friday, March 26! After that date, any preferential changes will be considered after timetables are available in late spring.

If you have been given a prerequisite waiver to have signed, please get that signed and back to guidance by Friday, March 26! If the waiver is not returned by that date, you will not be permitted to take the requested course.
