Students wishing to withdraw from the college credit portion of a course may do so by completing the College Ready Withdrawal Form.  All forms must be faxed to 303.797.5988.  All forms must be received by 5:00 p.m. on the last day to withdraw as noted on the College Ready calendar distributed on the first day of class.  Students must see their counselor for withdrawal from the high school credit portion of any course.  A separate form is needed for each class from which you want to withdraw.

The high school will not notify ACC in the event a student stops attending, leaves the district, or withdraws from the high school credit portion of a course.  It is the responsibility of the student to notify ACC of any schedule changes.

College Ready can advance your education! Here’s how:

The College Ready Program is being offered to juniors and seniors for the 2009-2010 school year. This program will lower the cost of college, increase flexibility of academic options, increase ease of access to college coursework and prepare students for a seamless transfer into college. College courses will be offered during the school day taught by ACC-qualified high school instructors, and students will receive academic and career advising to provide the support students need to succeed in college classes.

How can I get dual credit for one class?

Students will earn dual high school and college credit for the ACC classes they complete with a C or better. High school junior and senior students are offered a choice of taking a variety of ACC college curriculum that includes both academic and career and technical education courses. Course location and time will be determined by student demand and the availability of qualified faculty. Students should ask their high school counselors for more information.

College Ready is a partnership made possible through the efforts of Arapahoe Community College, Cherry Creek High School, Douglas County School District, and Littleton Public Schools.
