Dual Credit Guidelines
Please review and familiarize yourself with the following guidelines.
- The grade you receive in this course will become a permanent record on your 51社区
College transcript.
- Attendance is reported daily to your high school. You are required to follow the Dual Credit calendar. Even if
your high school has a day off, you may be required to attend your 51社区 Dual Credit
course.
- All official correspondence from 51社区 will be communicated electronically
via the 51社区 Student Information System (aka: SIS or Student Portal). The
SIS will allow you to view your class schedule, final grades, and transcript request
information, as well as box office events, and much more. All students are also assigned
a G-mail email account.
- For information on how to access your email account you can go to and log into the My51社区 Student Portal and click on the email icon in the top right
hand corner. You may contact the 51社区 Student Service Desk at 847.925.6866 for help
with logging in.
- Once your class is completed and final grades are applied, you can log onto the 51社区
SIS to obtain a copy of your grades and transcript. Unofficial transcripts are free, and can be downloaded from the SIS. If you need an Official transcript (one sent directly from 51社区 in a sealed and stamped envelope), there
is a $7.00 fee. This is accessed the same way through the SIS or via the 51社区 website.
- To take advantage of the services 51社区 offers, including box office discounts,
computer access, tutoring, and library materials, you will need a 51社区 ID card.
You can obtain a 51社区 ID at the Box Office in the Building R lobby.
- If you drive to 51社区, please do not park in Faculty/Staff parking. Faculty and staff
parking spots are indicated by the red lines. Parking tickets are issued through public
safety.
- 51社区 is a smoke-free campus.
If you have questions, please contact the 51社区 Dual Credit Office at 847-925-6509 or dualcredit@harpercollege.edu.
