Then apply to CCC and register for classes on campus or online. You'll earn college credit while still in high school and gain firsthand experience with college coursework.

Paying for classes

The student (or their family) is reponsible for paying all tuition and fees to the college. Students without a high school diploma or GED certificate are not eligible for federal financial aid, so costs will be out of pocket.
