The Irvine Unified School District (IUSD) is offering Dual Enrollment opportunities for high school students to earn free college credit through our College and Career Access Pathway partnership with Irvine Valley College (IVC) and Saddleback College.
These courses are eligible for college credit, A–G requirements and college admission. UC/CSU-transferable classes can reduce the time required to earn a degree, and all completed coursework will be recorded on an official IVC transcript. Tuition and textbooks are provided at no cost.
