Minneapolis Public Schools partners with colleges and universities to award articulated college credit to students for successfully completing CTE courses. 

To receive articulated college credit (or tuition credit) for a high school course, a student must meet requirements (usually earn a B grade or better) AND take at least one course at a college or university listed on an agreement.

• Minnesota high school students can track and print their Career & Technical Education articulated college credits through the CTEcreditMN website.

What is articulated college credit?  Articulated college credit courses are college courses offered at an MPS CTE Tech Center, taught by a high school CTE teacher. The courses are offered in partnership with a Minnesota career or technical (sometimes referred to as a two year) college.

Students who successfully meet college credit eligibility requirements will earn a certificate that can be presented to a participating college. This will result in a transfer credit - converted when the student enrolls and complete one semester of college in the corresponding CTE pathway.
