GCS High School students who have performed at a consistently high academic level have the opportunity to earn college credits through our Dual Enrollment and Career & College Promise Programs.
Through a partnership program with Judson College at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, GCS students 9th through 12th grade can earn college credit for the work done in dual enrollment high school classes at Grace Christian School.
Students gain exposure to the academic challenges of college while remaining in their supportive GCS environment. Each successfully passed course earns the student transcripted college credit. This dual enrollment partnership differs from Career & College Promise program because high school instructors teach or facilitate the college courses in-person in a GCS classroom.
Judson College at Southeastern is a school of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, an accredited institution awarding associate, baccalaureate, masters, and doctorate degrees. The college offers 17 majors and 19 minors. It stands by principles of academic excellence and spiritual growth; development in Christian Leadership and Biblical Worldview; and a commitment to affordable tuition.
Wake Forest, NC is home to the approximately 300-acre campus of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and Judson College.

Success in today’s global economy may require a two- or four-year degree, a certificate, or diploma. Through Career & College Promise (CCP), qualified North Carolina rising Juniors and Seniors have the opportunity to pursue these options tuition-free while in high school, allowing them to get a jump start on their workplace and college preparation.
GCS students can participate in CCP through Central Carolina Community College (CCCC) or Sandhills Community College. Students can either begin a Career and Technical program to be completed at either of these schools, or earn College Transfer credits for an eventual four-year college/university. Please refer to each school for CCP programs and courses offered.
