CCP admission requirements & guidelines

The College Credit Plus (CCP) program is available to qualified students in secondary   school (grades 7-12) who are enrolled in any public, private, parochial or home-school in Ohio.  

Through the CCP program, students are able to enroll in The University of Akron classes. It is recommended that prospective students work with their school counselors to discuss specific school policies.

Please note: CCP is not intended to be a substitute for the academic programs, social growth or maturing experience provided by Ohio’s secondary schools. It is not intended to interfere with or replace advanced placement courses nor the school’s college preparatory curriculum available to students within their school system.
