Enrolling in ECAP Classes While in High School
Please review all information on the AACPS ECAP website before registering for an ECAP class at AACC. It is important to understand student eligibility requirements, which classes are paid for by AACPS, how dual credit classes at AACC impact your high school transcript and GPA, and how AACC classes are different than your high school classes.
Students must earn a C or better in their AACC class(es) to be eligible for future funding. Unsuccessful completion of a college class can also impact your satisfactory academic progress (SAP), which can impact future financial aid at your post-secondary institution.
Steps to Enroll in ECAP Classes
Complete the online Anne Arundel Community College Application
Visit AACC's ECAP webpage for dual enrollment admission criteria and application procedures.
Save your AACC ID#, AACC username, and the password you created so that you can log into MYAACC to register for your class later.
Select a course you would like to take (Fall, Spring, or Summer (if eligible)):
Visit AACC's Course Search to find times/days that work with your schedule. Remember that your AHS classes take priority over AACC classes. Schedule carefully!
Dual Credit Options can be found here.
Complete the Early College Access (ECAP) Funding Request Form
You will need your AACC ID# to complete the form.
The request will automatically be sent to your parent/guardian first, then your school counselor, and then your school principal via email for approval.
If approved, the funding request is automatically sent to AACC, and applied within 2 business days.
Approvals must occur prior to registration or funds will not be provided.
Funds are approced for the course on the ECAP only. If student needs to make a change to the course they are requesting funding for, they should email the ecap@aacps.org
Students can see if funds have been applied by checking their MyAACC billing information.
If you do not qualify for the Funding Request Form, you may still register for an AACC course and receive a 25% tution discount on credited courses.
Register for AACC classes online through MyAACC portal. The ECAP application does NOT enroll a student into the class.
