college, online through the college, or at the high school
(for select courses)

as one to three exams/research papers.

in CC+ should utilize the available support services at
the institution they are attending.

▪ No high school graduation requirement may be waived for any
student as a result of participating in this program including
the Honors Diploma.
▪ Scheduling conflicts are not the responsibility of the school
district.
▪ Other issues relevant to scheduling will vary from district to
district, and should be identified as appropriate.
▪ The academic schedule of the college may differ from your
high school schedule. Many times Christmas and Spring
Breaks do no coincide and therefore you may have to forfeit
your vacation plans.
▪ Students enrolled part-time on a college
campus must have a full schedule
between their CC+ and High School
courses.
▪ Athletes must still meet OHSAA eligibility
requirements. Full-time CC+ students
should consider their GPA and course load
to meet these requirements.
