Successful completion in high school of Tech Prep articulated courses with a “B” or better entitles a student to receive credit at Yavapai College if the following conditions are met:
¨ Student must graduate from the High School where the credit was earned.
¨ Student must earn at least a “B” in each of the High School articulated courses.
¨ Student must enroll at Yavapai College within two years after high school graduation.
¨ Student must apply for Tech Prep status at Yavapai College at the time application for admission is made to the college.
¨ Student must meet and maintain all entrance standards, prerequisites, and academic standards of Yavapai College and intended program(s) of study.
¨ Student must successfully complete a minimum of six credit hours at Yavapai College in required credits for the articulated program. (Independent study, cooperative education, internship or practicum courses do not count as part of the six credit hour minimum requirement.)
While Yavapai College will award credit for courses identified in this articulation agreement and as specified by the Yavapai County Tech Prep Consortium Agreement, the credit is not necessarily transferable to other colleges and universities. Students are strongly advised to meet with a program adviser at the college or university they plan to attend, since transfer credit is awarded according to the credit acceptance policies of the transfer institution.
The maximum amount of Tech Prep credit that can be earned while in high school is normally 9 college credit hours.
Successful completion of the high school portion of the Tech Prep program will become part of the student’s official high school transcript and will be forwarded to Yavapai College upon request by the student. Students must request a transcript evaluation by Yavapai College upon acceptance at the college to be granted the Tech Prep credit.
Students and/or Tech Prep Instructors may print out a certificate of credit (pdf) (word) to be processed by the Tech Prep Site Coordinator at the high school campus.
