University of Idaho Dual Credit
Dual credit lets MHS students enroll in college courses prior to high school graduation. College credits earned through dual credit can be applied toward both high school and college graduation and can be transferred to other colleges or universities. Dual credit eases the transition to college by giving students firsthand exposure to college-level work while earning high school and college credit simultaneously. Classes may be taught at the MHS campus, the university campus, or online.
Dual Credit courses on the UI campus must be approved by the UI instructor. Students should work with their MHS counselor to discuss how these courses will count for high school credit. Students can also contact UI's Academic Advising at
[email protected] to find out if they have met the prerequisite requirements to take a particular course. See the
UI Class Schedule for course times and information.
Whether taken on the MHS campus or on the UI campus, students can access their
Advanced Opportunities funding to pay up to $75 per credit, which covers the Dual Credit discount rate of $75 per credit during fall and spring terms. Keep in mind that any college class taken with funding from Advanced Opportunities must post to your high school transcript.
Dual credit courses on the MHS campus are offered in partnership with the University of Idaho.
MHS students can also take dual credit courses online through Lewis-Clark State College, Idaho State University, Boise State University, Northwest Nazarene, the College of Western Idaho, and the College of Southern Idaho.

Step 2: Funding
Advanced Opportunities gives MHS students an allotment of $4,125 to use toward the cost of overload courses, dual credits, and exams. Advanced Opportunities credits must be school approved in the portal before the Dual Credit Office can enroll students. Students (not parents) need to create their own accounts. Once you create your account you will then need to wait to get it approved; all requests will be checked and approved daily by MHS Registrar. After your account has been approved, you will need to then log into your account and apply for funding for EACH course.
This video shows step-by-step directions on how to create an account and apply for funding. Once registered, all students can log in to their
VandalWeb account to view charges and make payments. (The university will need up to 2 weeks to process Advanced Opportunities payments to your student account.)
Also, make sure to turn in a new
Advanced Opportunities Fast Forward Participation Form every year.
Options for Payment other than using Advanced Opportunities funds:
- Tuition and fees can be paid in full by cash, check, debit card, credit card or electronic bank transfer (E-Check).
- Cash is accepted only in person at the Student Accounts/Cashiers window (Bruce Pitman Center, 1st floor, Room 125).
- Checks are accepted in person at the Student Accounts/Cashier's window or by mail.
- Debit card payments (with a PIN), are accepted only in person at the Student Account/Cashier's window.
- Credit card and debit card payments are accepted via VandalWeb (with a convenience fee of $3 or 2.85%, whichever is greater).
