Abstract	This research compares the academic performance of two groups of students at the community college level of higher education. These two groups are dual credit students and non-dual credit students. The academic records of these students were examined from the years 2010-2014. Students in both groups had completed their formal high school education and were subsequently formally enrolled in community college. One central question formed the basis of the research: What is the relationship between students' prior dual credit education and their subsequent academic performance at the community college, when measured using students' past academic records examining their cumulative GPAs? The research methodology used was quantitative and descriptive. The data included 600 student records; 300 dual credit and 300 non-dual credit. The statistical results and findings of the research validates the assumption that prior dual credit education has a positive impact on student academic performance at the community college.
