Title 49 - Education
Chapter 15 - Cooperative Innovative High School Programs
§ 49-15-111. Dual Credit Courses
Universal Citation: TN Code § 49-15-111 (2021)
- When the consortium approves a program under this part and the program successfully provides a dual credit class that is accepted by an institution of higher education in either the board of regents system or the University of Tennessee system, then any high school in the state may replicate the class. Dual credit for the class shall be granted by public institutions of higher education offering a major or program for which the class is designed upon a student's completion of the course and successful passage of the challenge examination with a score equal to or higher than the cut score.
- Any public institution of higher education may, at any time, request the consortium to review a dual credit course and its challenge examination, if the institution perceives the course or its assessment to possess deficiencies. A public higher education institution may also challenge the right of a high school to continue offering a dual credit course to the consortium should a perceived deficiency be demonstrated within the high school. The consortium shall review the dual credit course, assessment or high school and may provide remedies to remove any deficiencies as it determines to be in the best interests of high schools or institutions of higher education, and their students.
- Notwithstanding this part to the contrary, the consortium shall not approve a program if the program in any way adversely affects the accreditation of an institution.
