Earn College Credit through Our Dual Credit Program

Why Oklahoma Christian University?

1. College-Level Courses: Students who enroll in Oklahoma Christian University through completing TEL-education courses receive identical credit to standard, on campus Oklahoma Christian University courses.
2. Flexibility: Asynchronous and completely online. Students have up to 18 weeks to finish all courses. You can start courses in alignment to your other ICA courses as all dual enrollment courses have continuous, rolling enrollments.
3. Affordability: At the same cost of regular tuition, you can earn both high school and college credit.
4. Program Options: Students can take single courses, complete a course bundle, work towards completing their first year of college, or earn an Associate’s degree while also completing high school graduation requirements.
5. Student Support: Through TEL-education courses, students receive layered support through both TEL-education and through Oklahoma Christian University. Students have access to course instructors, teaching assistants, and student support coaches.
6. Transferability: Oklahoma Christian University is a four-year, regionally accredited institution. You can easily enroll with Oklahoma Christian University after high school or transfer credits to another institution.

1. College-level Courses: All Universal Learner Courses (ULC) are college-level, rigorous courses. Courses are taught by ASU faculty. Credit received for the course is identical to credit received in an on-campus class.
2. No risk: If a student receives an “A”, “B” or “C” they are eligible to convert to credit. If they choose not to convert to credit, the course does not appear on their college transcript.
3. Affordability: Ignite Christian Academy students to enroll in ASU Universal Learner Courses at the same cost as regular ICA tuition.
4. Programs: Take single courses and/or complete requirements towards one of two mastery certificates: Applied Business Data Analytics; Project Management.

1. Courses are offered as either 8-week or 16-week courses. All courses require about 135 hours of work. Students should be prepared to work up to two hours per day in each dual enrollment course.
2. Students must enroll according to the ASU academic calendar. Typically there is one start date per semester for 16 week courses and two start dates per semester for 8 week courses.
3. ICA is only allowing instructor-led courses to be available for enrollment. ASU self-paced courses are not available to ICA students at this time.
4. Courses are large-scale, with many courses exceeding 1,000+ learners.
5. Due to the scale of the Universal Learner Courses, direct and/or private access and communication to the instructor is limited.
6. There are some limitations due to the large-scale of ASU courses:
• Course start dates cannot be adjusted
• Course schedules cannot be adjusted
• Extensions cannot be granted as the LMS platform can only open assignments for ALL students at a time.
• Late work cannot be accepted
