Dual Credit with Arizona State University
Earn college credit while still in high school through Arizona State University's Universal Learner Courses, with support from Valor Heights. Students can explore college-level subjects without applying to an ASU degree program. Universal Learner participation is separate from admission to an ASU degree program.
Step One
Choose Your Course
Browse ASU's live Universal Learner catalog and pick the course that fits your student. Families can choose directly from these offerings; there is no need to contact us for approval first.
Our downloadable guide includes a course list, and ASU's live catalog is the source for current offerings.
Before you enroll, review the course's:
- Prerequisites
- Start dates
- Format
- Workload

Four Steps to Get Started
Work through these in order. Each step links straight to the ASU page you need.
Step 2
Activate your ASURITE
ASURITE, pronounced “Azurite,” is the student's ASU username. Watch for ASU's activation email, check your spam folder, and follow its instructions. Allow approximately 1–3 business days for the email to arrive and about 24 hours after activation for access to sync.
Step 3
Send your username to Valor Heights
Email the student's full name, ASURITE username, and selected course to both addresses below so we can support them through the course.
Send only the username—never the password.
Step 4
Complete setup and begin
Complete ASU's identity verification and the remaining tasks on your dashboard. Confirm the correct course appears and review its deadlines.
