Dual Credit Partner Schools
Dual Credit Partnership
As a Christ-centered, discipleship-focused university in Salem, Oregon, Corban values our partnerships with area high schools that align with the University’s mission “to educate Christians who will make a difference in the world for Jesus Christ.” The dual credit program is one way that we can help enhance your students’ success, offer shared resources, and partner together in equipping students to follow God’s plan for their lives.
A dual credit partnership with Corban demonstrates to parents and students that graduates from your school will be college-ready and that you are making a way for affordable Christian higher education options.
The partnership our staff has experienced and the value our families have received is what keeps us coming back to Corban University year after year.
