Advanced College Credit (ACC) Registration

ACC classes are college courses offered at your high school and taught by approved high school instructors. To earn college credit, students must register through Clackamas Community College (CCC) during designated registration periods while taking the class. ACC courses cost $10 per college credit, billed directly to the student. Fee waivers are available for students who qualify.

Before registering, all ACC students should read the ACC Student Handbook to learn about program expectations and responsibilities. Students should also check for any course prerequisite classes that must be completed before enrolling in a specific course. Prerequisite information can be found in the high school course catalog, by speaking with a high school counselor, or by reviewing CCC Course Descriptions.

High School Students Taking General Classes at CCC

High school students are welcome to take classes online or on campus at CCC! Students without a high school diploma or GED are not eligible for federal financial aid and will be billed for full tuition and fees. Students can register independently, just like traditional college students, if they plan on paying for their course(s) on their own. If the high school or district will cover the cost through the Expanded Options program, students must speak with their high school counselor before registering. Some schools also require meeting with a High School Connections advisor at CCC to complete additional paperwork.

If students are planning to have college credit earned at CCC transferred back to their high school for high school credit, it is recommended to confirm with the high school that any college credit will be accepted for reverse transfer before registering. High school students are encouraged to schedule an advising appointment with a High School Connections advisor to choose classes and plan how college courses can fit into future goals.

Students under 16 may enroll in CCC courses outside of High School Connections programs if they demonstrate the appropriate physical, emotional, and intellectual readiness. Placement at the correct academic level and instructor approval are required. Instructor approval can be requested by completing the Under 16 Enrollment Form. Students who will turn 16 by the first day of the term do not need to complete this form.

High school students are encouraged to follow the Getting Started Steps for High School Students Taking College Classes as well as reaching out to hsconnections@clackamas.edu if any support is needed in getting started taking classes at CCC – we are here to help!
