What is Career and College Promise (CCP)?
Career and College Promise (CCP) gives high school juniors and seniors the opportunity to get a "jump start" and earn college credit toward a two-year or four-year degree while still in high school. Students are dually enrolled in their high school and at Central Piedmont Community College, allowing them to receive both high school and college credit for courses taken through the program. Best of all, CCP classes are tuition-free during the fall and spring semesters. (High school students are responsible for student fees and insurance fees). Students are responsible for summer tuition and fees.
