HOW DOES COLLEGE CREDIT PLUS IMPACT
ATHELTIC ELIGIBITY?
•
•
•
•
You must remain eligible in accordance with the Ohio High
School Athletic Association (OHSAA) bylaws.
To be athletically eligible, students must be passing five, one credit courses or the equivalent per grading period with the high school and college courses combined.
Most College Credit Plus courses taken during a semester will equal one Carnegie unit, allowing students to earn more than the required five for athletic eligibility.
Please check with your counselor to ensure that the course work you are taking is compliant the OHSAA.

 A Pathway may be organized by a major or career path
 Include various core courses required for a degree or professional certification by the college
 A pathway does not keep a student from choosing different courses (following a pathway is preferred but not required. Students may choose from a variety of courses)

 Once you are admitted to a college for
College Credit Plus, you may take any course in the college’s course catalogue that is not remedial or religious, and that applies toward a degree or professional certificate, in a subject area in which you are collegeready.

 CCP is an Advanced Standing Program with IB (International Baccalaureate), AP
(Advanced Placement) and ECHS (Early
College High School)
 All advanced standing programs must be
WEIGHTED the same (college classes will be weighted into the GPA )
