WHAT IS COLLEGE CREDIT PLUS?College Credit Plus (CCP) is a program that provides opportunity for qualified high school students to take college courses and earn college credit, at no cost, while still in high school.

Qualified students may take college courses:

• In the high school classroom, taught by a high school teacher who has been approved to teach the college course

• At any Cincinnati State campus location, taught by Cincinnati State Faculty

• Online, taught by Cincinnati State Faculty

These college courses result in both high school credit toward high school graduation, and transcripted college credit. Upon graduation from high school, students can continue their education at Cincinnati State to complete an associate degree or certificate program, or can be transferred to another Ohio college or university. CCP participation is available to public, private school, and homeschool students. Private school and homeschool students must follow additional steps to participate. Additional information can be found at www.ohiohighered.org/ccp/faqs.
