College Credit Plus (CCP)

College Credit Plus (CCP) is a program sponsored by the state of Ohio for students who are U.S. Citizens and Ohio residents in grades 7-12. Through the CCP program, NOCA students are permitted to apply for participation in early college course options by taking coursework from colleges located within a 30- mile radius of the NOCA campus.

Students must meet college admission standards via maintaining a minimum 3.0 GPA and must test in the range designated by the college on the Accuplacer (or have qualifying ACT/ SAT scores). Students who have met these requirements are eligible to take college courses at no charge. Families must attend a mandatory student & parent meeting in January and complete an Intent to Participate form. The Intent to Participate form must be submitted to Mrs. Desmond no later than April 1st. Students must complete all accompanying application forms, attend meetings and registration training sessions offered by the college. Failure to meet deadlines will disqualify any student from participating in the CCP program.

Northwest Ohio Classical Academy partners with Bowling Green State University, University of Toledo and Owens Community College to provide CCP courses. Students who opt to take CCP courses are encouraged to take 100% asynchronous on- line courses to allow students maximum flexibility with their scheduling needs and the benefit of enjoying their high school experience.

Students’ grades are weighted the same as NOCA courses and applied to their G.P.A. College Credit Plus participation and course selections are not guaranteed.
