CCP replaces PSEO (Post Secondary Educational Options) and Dual Enrollment programs.
CCP courses count for both high school and college credit.
Students can choose any course that is not remedial or religious and applies toward a degree or professional certification, in a subject area in which the student is college-ready.

Am I eligible to participate?

The student must meet the participation requirements set by the college/university that he/she chooses to attend and be accepted by the college.
The student may be required to take a placement test and/or meet other criteria for the college.

Cost and Credit

There is no cost to participate in CCP courses offered at a public college/university.
There may be additional fees to participate in CCP courses offered by a private college/university.
Successful completion of the course results in earned credit on both the student’s high school AND college transcript.
The student’s CCP course grade will be reflected on both transcripts.
The CCP grades are computed into the high school grade point average.

Dates and Deadlines

Students must turn in the letter of intent to participate by April 1 st .
