It Helps You Determine Your Area of Study
When choosing a precollege program, most likely, you’ll end up choosing one that fits your areas of interest. These programs are known for giving students the chance to dive deep and explore their passions with an uninterrupted focus. However, precollege programs can also benefit the student who doesn’t fully know what their primary interest is. Precollege programs are a great way to explore new fields and discover new paths. Precollege allows you to learn, try, and fail without detriment. Regardless of wanting to explore an old passion or to find a new one, precollege programs replicate the process of studying your interests full time. Ultimately, this means that precollege can help determine whether or not a specific major is right for you.

Next summer, we are offering five distinct pre-college programs, each of which provides rigorous and collaborative college life experiences that will enable students to gain a strong sense of their personal and academic potential and get a glimpse of their futures. Here is a brief overview of each of our programs:
High School Honors is a six-week residential, commuter, or online program in which students take Boston University undergraduate courses and earn up to 8 transferable college credits. Students must be entering their junior or senior year of high school in fall 2025.
RISE Internship/Practicum is a six-week, non-credit residential or commuter program in which domestic students conduct university-level scientific research under the guidance of university mentors and instructors. Students must be entering their senior year of high school in fall 2025.

This summer we are offering four AIM tracks: Introduction to Experimental Psychology; Introduction to Medicine; Creative Writing; and Business. Each track combines classroom work in the subject area with hands-on experiential learning activities. Students must be entering their junior or senior year of high school in fall 2025.

Post Secondary Resources
Our Bridge to Bachelor’s Degree Program guarantees that new, first-time students attending any CCCS College will be admitted to a participating four-year college or university once they complete their Associate degree.
Benefits to Students
CCCS students who participate in the Bridge to Bachelor’s Degree program will have access to:
Personalized student advising and guidance to ensure credits and administrative supports are in place to easily transfer to a desired four-year program.
Scholarship opportunities to make degrees from a four-year institution more attainable and affordable.
A no-hassle transfer process between participating two-year and four-year programs, ensuring a smooth transition.
The College Opportunity Fund (COF), created by the Colorado Legislature, provides a stipend to eligible undergraduate students. The stipend pays a portion of the total in-state tuition when attending a participating college.
Eligible undergraduate students must apply, be admitted and enroll in classes at a participating college to receive this benefit. Both new and continuing students are eligible for the stipend.
Qualifying students may use the stipend for eligible undergraduate classes. The stipend is paid on a per credit hour basis directly to the college at which the student is enrolled. The credit-hour amount is set annually by the General Assembly.
Colleges and career schools use the FAFSA form to determine how much financial aid you're eligible to receive, which could include grants, scholarships, work-study funds, and loans.
You must apply for aid every year, but with the right information in hand, it's easy.
Who should complete the FAFSA® form?
