College Credit Plus (CCP)

An Introduction to College Credit Plus

College Credit Plus (CCP) is open to all Ohio college-ready students in grades 7–12. It enables students to earn both high school and college credit at the same time. Students can earn up to 30 college credit hours per academic year, which includes the summer session, with a maximum of 120 college credit hours while enrolled in the program. The courses, including all applicable fees and textbooks, are offered free to the student at Washington State as well as any public college or university in Ohio.

The subject matter of a course enrolled in under the College Credit Plus program may include mature subject matter or materials, including those of a graphic, explicit, violent, or sexual nature. Course content will not be modified regardless of where the class is taught.

As a CCP student, you can choose to take classes on the WSCO campus, online, or at your high school. Take one class or a full schedule—the possibilities are endless!
