The dual enrollment process at CCV (Community College of Vermont) is changing!

Beginning this summer:

Rising high school Seniors are eligible to use a dual enrollment voucher to take a free course at CCV regardless of whether they complete Introduction to College Studies.

Rising high school Juniors are eligible to use a dual enrollment voucher at CCV after completion of Introduction to College Studies.  Alternatively, a Junior with strong academic and time management skills may request a waiver for Introduction to College Studies. The student, school counselor and CCV advisor are involved in the decision to waive ICS.

High school Sophomores are eligible to use a dual enrollment voucher after completion of Introduction to College Studies.

Students will still be allowed to use their vouchers for college credit-bearing or developmental courses as appropriate, barring pending legislative action that may preclude this in the future.

The registration process:

Student should apply (as non-degree, high school students) to CCV at www.ccv.edu

Students planning to register for Introduction to College Studies can either register themselves online (via the application itself) or register through a CCV advisor.

Students wishing to use a dual enrollment voucher without taking Introduction to College Studies must meet with an academic advisor and then take the four academic (accuplacer) assessments before registering.

Introduction to College Studies:

This course remains an important tool to raise college aspirations among high school students. It helps them identify career options, explore colleges, develop comfort with financial aid and greater financial literacy, and make informed decisions about their post-secondary education. Students who complete ICS are 23% more likely to attend college after high school.

The changes outlined above will likely result in students opting to take Introduction to College Studies during their sophomore year. We have already seen this trend in recent years, as well as the benefit of this early college exposure. Please continue encouraging sophomores to take ICS.
