2008-2009 DLC Membership Resources

Course Credit Funds

Equal access to online courses

Public high schools receive $1000 in credit to help offset the cost of online courses and equalize the opportunity for all students. Course Credit Funds are granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Course Credit Funds have been allocated for 08-09 -- schools will now be added to a waitlist to receive funds on a first-come, first-served basis if more become available. (Reminder: By purchasing online courses through the DLC, you save up to $75 per course.)

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the DLC send any unspent CCFs back to my school?

Unspent funds will not be returned to schools. Funds can be used for the entire school year (including summer term), but they cannot be carried over from year to year.

Can my school apply CCFs to the cost of other optional resources?

CCFs can only be used to pay for course fees and associated materials charges, such as textbooks.

What if the total costs for courses in my school are greater than our CCFs?

The DLC will invoice your school for any costs over the allocated CCFs.

If a student drops a course, will we be charged the full amount?

Charges for drops will depend on the timing of the drop. When possible, the DLC will pass along only a nominal drop fee.

Will course fees be included in the course catalog?

Yes, course and materials fees will be available to Registrars and Teacher/Mentors via the DLC registration system. Since DLC courses are discounted below the providers' standard rates, we do not share those costs with the general public.

What if my school qualifies for CCFs, but joined after all the funds had been allocated?

Your school will be added to a waitlist. If additional funds become available, we'll allocate them on a first-come, first-served basis.
