STEP 1: Complete the ACC application
Apply to ACC. If you haven't applied, you cannot earn college credit. If you've taken courses through our non-credit Community Education department, you'll need to re-apply as a credit student.
STEP 2: Complete the COF application
The College Opportunity Fund, or COF, pays for roughly half of your first 145 credits earned towards your bachelor's degree. If you don't apply for COF, ACC will send a bill to your home district for the portion that would have been paid for by the College Opportunity Fund. Check the College Access Network for the most current information about COF.
STEP 3: Satisfy testing requirements
Testing is important so you can decide if you are ready for college-level work. Some classes have prerequisite test scores you must meet. Check with your counselor for information about these courses.
STEP 4: Register for the class at your high school.
If you don't appear on the high school roster by the Add Deadline you will not be enrolled for college credit.
STEP 5: Complete the Concurrent Enrollment Agreement and Registration Form
We will give you this form at the start of the concurrent enrollment class. If you do not receive one, you may get it from your high school counselor. This form is required by the State of Colorado for all students concurrently enrolled for Fall 2011 and beyond.
STEP 6: Purchase your textbook .
Textbooks available approximately four weeks before the term starts. ACC recommends purchasing your book from the ACC Bookstore. Books from the ACC bookstore are sure to be the correct edition. Books available from other sources may be different in important ways.
STEP 7: We'll register you into your Concurrent Enrollment class for college credit if you're in the high school class, have applied to ACC and completed all testing requirements.
Please be familiar with all Concurrent Enrollment Program Requirements.
