Veritas Scholars Academy has partnered with Cairn University to offer dual enrollment credits to full-time (diploma) and part-time students. After successful completion of the course the student will receive credit from both VSA and Cairn University. There are no additional outside requirements for Veritas students to receive dual credits.
*Course names are Veritas Scholars Academy’s. Course numbers after the names are Cairn’s codes.
Dual Enrollment (DE) occurs when a VSA student is enrolled in a VSA Live course that is recognized by Cairn University (www.Cairn.edu) as eligible for dual enrollment status and applies for this status. After successful completion of the course with a passing grade, the student will receive credit from both VSA and Cairn University.
Students who complete a DE course with a grade of 70% or above will receive an official transcript from Cairn University documenting college course credit.
Classes are a full academic year at VSA and registered as a Spring semester course at Cairn University. If needed for college applications, Cairn can provide an Enrollment Verification Letter at a student’s written request. These are available at the end of November of the academic year in which the student is enrolled in the course.
Cairn University will provide an academic transcript for DE courses. Transcript requests can be made by visiting Cairn’s Transcript Portal. VSA provides course grades to Cairn University in June. Transcript requests to include current DE grades should be made after June 21st.
