College Credit Plus - Three high school students sitting together in class and listening to the teacher

College Credit Plus

College Credit Plus lets students in grades 7–12 take college courses while still in high school — and earn both high school and college credit. It's open to public, private, and homeschool students.

What is CCP?

  • Take up to 30 credits per year (including fall, spring, and summer)

  • Classes count for both high school and college credit.  This counts most specifically at public universities in state of Ohio based on chosen degree.

  • Public high school students’ tuition will be paid directly out of the public school’s state funds at an agreed upon discounted university tuition rate

  • Non-public and homeschooled students are subsidized by a specific sum of money set aside by the Ohio General Assembly, and funds are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis

  • Textbooks, tuition and fees related to coursework are provided for both public and non-public students by the individual school district
  • Get ahead in college and graduate sooner

  • Save money on college tuition

  • Potentially reduce financial aid and the time required to obtain a degree

  • Take advanced or extra classes earlier

  • Prepare for college-level work and expectations

  • Potentially reducing costs to parents, students, school districts, and taxpayers

You need either:

  • A 3.0 cumulative unweighted high school GPA,

OR

  • Obtain one of these test scores:

ACT: English 18, Reading 22, or Math 22

SAT: Reading/Writing 480 or Math 530


  • If your GPA is at least 2.75 cumulative unweighted high school GPA, it will be evaluated by the Office of Admissions to determine if ACT or SAT scores are required.

  • 7th and 8th graders must take the ACT or SAT. No exceptions.

CCP is a great opportunity, but it’s not meant to replace high school experiences or advanced placement (AP) courses. It should complement your education, not replace it.
