Dual Enrollment Qualifications:
Be a high school junior or senior when CFCC classes begin;
Have an unweighted high school GPA of 2.8 or higher
If under a 2.8 unweighted and want access to College Transfer Pathways, then you can demonstrate College Readiness in English, Reading, and Math on a college placement test (chart below). See your counselor to review the scores in your file.
Most courses within the CTE and EWD pathways do not require a 2.8 unweighted GPA; if these courses interest you, see Mrs. Pridgen in 704.
There are 4 steps:
1. Determine your pathway(s).
2. Complete the application on CFNC and the appropriate Approval Form for your pathway.
3. Read the CCP Policies & Procedures document, then complete the associated quiz.
4. Complete and return the Dual Enrollment Acknowledgement
You can complete the steps on your own using the listed instructions, or you can sign up for a help session.
PRIORITY DEADLINE FOR ALL APPLICATION MATERIALS IS MARCH 28
REGISTRATION FOR SUMMER/FALL CLASSES OPENS APRIL 14
Sign up in Student Services to get help with your CCP application, course planning, and/or registration
Pathways can be found at https://cfcc.edu/career-and-college-promise/ and you can open the CCP Pathway Options document
3 different pathway options - College Transfer or Career Technical Education (CTE) or Economic & Workforce Development (EWD).
You can select:
One College Transfer Pathway (we highly recommend starting with Associates in Science or Associates in Arts)
One College Transfer Pathway and one CTE or EWD Pathway
Up to two CTE Pathways or two EWD Pathways
You can ONLY take classes within your chosen pathway(s). So, choose the pathway that gives you most of what you're looking to take. You can request to add or change a pathway through Mrs. Goalder should your needs change.
Once you have chosen a pathway, WRITE IT DOWN. You will need to know it for Step 2.
We encourage you to attend a Getting Started session so you can choose a pathway before beginning your application. Sign up in Student Services.
FOR ECONOMIC & WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PATHWAYS, MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MRS. PRIDGEN.
