A High School Articulation agreement is between a K-12 district/high school district and LBCC. The agreement allows eligible high school students to earn college credit for approved high school Career Technical Education (CTE) courses. To receive LBCC units, students are required to meet the agreed-upon criteria and successfully pass the college’s exam known as ”Credit by Exam”. To get started, students must complete the enrollment steps below by the end of April. If they pass the Credit By Exam, their grades will be posted by the end of August. 

For additional information, check in with your High School Instructor or ECI Team (earlycollege@lbcc.edu).
