Career & College Promise (CCP) Program for High School
Students
North Carolina high school programs formerly known as Huskins, Learn & Earn Online (LEO), Concurrent, and Dual Enrollment are now combined into one—Career & College Promise (CCP). Success in today’s global economy requires a two-or four-year degree, a certificate or diploma. If you are a qualified North Carolina high school junior or senior, CCP gives you the opportunity to pursue these options—tuition free! This is your chance to get a jump start on your workplace and college preparation.
CCP provides three programs to help advance your post-high school success: Career Technical Education Pathways
College Transfer Pathways
Cooperative Innovative High School Program

Lead to a certificate or
diploma aligned with a North Carolina high school Career Cluster.

College Transfer Pathways

Allow qualified high school juniors and
seniors to complete up to 35 semester hours credit tuition free. Classes identified in
the Career and College Transfer Pathways will transfer seamlessly (with a course
grade of C or higher) to any North Carolina public university as well as participating
private colleges/universities. This offers a tremendous way for students to save
time and money in pursuing four-year degrees.
To be eligible for enrollment, a high school student must meet ALL of the following criteria:
(1) Be a high school junior or senior
(2) Have a weighted GPA of 3.0 or above on high school courses
(3) Demonstrate college readiness on an approved assessment or placement test(s). A student must demonstrate college readiness in English, reading and mathematics (see Page 5) to be eligible for enrollment in either of the College Transfer Pathways.
There are two college transfer pathways available: CCP Transfer Pathway leading to an
Associate in Arts degree
CCP Transfer Pathway leading to an Associate in Science degree
