*For courses at Emerald Campus, the college awarding credit is Columbus State Community College (CSCC).

Students mature at different rates and some are ready to take on added responsibilities and mature content while others are not.  Students and parents should gather as much information as possible about the CCP Program before making a decision for students to sign up and participate.  Before participation, students and parents should weigh the benefits, risks, and potential consequences.

Course Options: Once students are admitted to a college/university for CCP, students may take courses in the college/university course catalog that are not remedial or religious, that apply toward a degree or professional certificate, and in a subject area in which students are deemed eligible and college- and career-ready. There are constraints to the types of courses that are available to students as defined by the State of Ohio:

• Students must start with Level I courses for their first 15 credits
• Exceptions may be made for students to continue with courses in the same subject, test directly into a Level II course, or have earned the required scores on AP or IB course examinations
• Once students have completed their first 15 credits, they can move onto Level II courses

Students should review the course catalog of the college/university for a full listing of course offerings eligible for CCP participation.  Parents and students should also speak with their school counselor and their assigned postsecondary counselor for more detailed information.
