Transferring Dual Enrollment Credits to York College

If a student has completed a Dual Enrollment program through an accredited college, while in high school, we will review this for transfer credit. The student will need to submit an official college transcript to the York College Admissions Office as part of their application process to have their credits reviewed.

Official transcripts can be mailed to:
