What is CCP? Replaces the Post-Secondary Enrollment Options Program (PSEOP) Allows eligible students in grades 7-12 to enroll in non-religious, non-remedial courses through a college/university in Ohio and earn both high school and college credit College courses may be taken on the campus of the college, online through the college, or at the high school (for select courses)

Potential Benefits  Expands rigorous curriculum options Allows students to earn college credits before graduating from high school May help reduce college costs and time spent in college after high school graduation Allows students to experience college course work and college life May expose students to diverse social groups

Potential Risks & Consequences  May reduced opportunities for participating in high school activities  Increased time for travel, study, etc.  Possibility of exposure to adult content and information  Unable to be on first and third quarter honor roll because grades are not available until completion of each semester  Failure to complete the course or withdrawal after the drop deadline may result in all financial obligations for that course defaulting to the student/parents

Potential Risks/Consequences  May not be 100% transferable to all colleges and universities as the subject area in which it was taught. (may be accepted as a gen ed class)  Beginning collegiate academic transcript  Increased responsibility for learning

Academic/Social Responsibility Academic core college courses will be computed into the high school GPA using the same weighted scale as Honors courses All college course final grades will be computed in student’s cum GPA  Attendance in college is totally up to the individual student. Parents will NOT receive notification if the student does not report to class

The Conversion of Credit Credits: CollegeEastwood 5 = = = =.60 1 =.30

Scheduling Formula to determine eligible amount of college credits: High School credits x 3. Subtract result from 30  Work with your Eastwood counselor to determine how college courses will be applied towards Eastwood graduation requirements  Students may not drop a full-year course at Eastwood to enroll in a second semester course at the university

Scheduling  If you choose to drop CCP second semester you must notify your guidance counselor immediately as it may put you in jeopardy of not graduating on time  College school year schedule will be different than Eastwood schedule (Christmas and Spring Breaks do no coincide)

Scheduling CCP hours:  30 hours per academic year  120 hours total for high school years Calculate :  Determine student’s number of high school ONLY classes  Multiply that number by 3  Subtract the result from the number 30  Difference is the total number of college credits that CCP student may earn that academic year

EXAMPLE 1.Taking 4 high school classes 2.4 x 3 = – 12 = 18 4.Total number of college credits for academic year is 18

Athletes  Full-time CCP must be enrolled in a minimum of 12 hours or more of college course work  Part-time CCP students must be enrolled in at least 5 classes  Phys Ed (.25) does not qualify as one of the five classes.
