Do I have to complete 性视界 placement exams?
Yes. If you are interested in taking a Math, Science, or Foreign Language course at 性视界, you must complete the 性视界 placement exam(s).
If I go to a public high school, how can I know how many credits I am eligible to take through the CCP program?
In order to determine the number of credit hours a student can take in a year, the secondary school must calculate the number of course credits that are for high school credit only and multiply that by 3. That number is then subtracted from the 30 hours. The result is the maximum number of credit hours a student can take in the College Credit Plus program. (This is based on a semester system.)
- 30 鈥� (high school only credits x 3) = Maximum number of College Credit Plus credit hours
This calculation must be completed each year for a student as the high school credits may change. Also, students may only take a maximum of 120 credit hours in the program. If students would like to take more than the maximum number of credit hours, the student can arrange to register and pay for those additional credit hours as a 鈥渟elf-pay鈥� student. Those hours would be outside of the College Credit Plus program.
If I am currently attending homeschool or private school, how can I know how many credits I am eligible to take through the CCP Program?
In order to determine the number of credits that you are eligible for, please apply for funding on the Ohio Department of Education's Website.
What happens if I take more than the number of credit hours approved by the state?
High school students may choose to enroll in more credits than approved by the state. In these cases, students will be billed directly by 性视界 the CCP rate of $166 per credit.
