Introduction to College Credit Plus
Sylvania students in grades 7-12 have an opportunity to participate in the College Credit Plus program. Eligible students can take a course and earn high school and college credit that appears on both the high school and college transcripts. Students incur no cost when participating in College Credit Plus at a public college or university; however, students choosing to enroll in a participating private college or university might incur costs. Nonpublic institutions of higher education may not charge students who are economically disadvantaged. Students may access various delivery methods for participating in this program including, but not limited to, attending a university or community college, participating in online coursework, or attending one of Sylvania’s high schools and enrolling in a high school course that is credentialed for college credit.

Students and parents may have several questions about this program. This guide can help answer most of them. For more help in deciding whether this opportunity is right for you, check with your school counselor or principal.

PROGRAM ELIGIBILITY

The College Credit Plus program permits students in grades 7-12 who are college-ready both intellectually and socially to earn college and/or high school graduation credit through the completion of college level courses. Here are specific details on eligibility:

Participating colleges or universities must accept applying students as college ready. Students also must to participate in a counseling session prior to participation.

Students and parents must sign the Letter of Intent to Participate form indicating that appropriate counseling was provided and all responsibilities for participation are understood and accepted each year of participation. If, for some reason, a student changes his or her decision about participating after April 1, he or she must notify the principal immediately.

Students may still participate in the upcoming summer term if they plan on transferring schools. However when they transfer, it is their responsibility to notify Sylvania, their new school, and the post-secondary institution.

At the time of enrollment, the student/parents elect their participation option:

	OPTIONS A-1 and A-2	OPTION B	

Costs

Credit	Participants and/or parents take responsibility for tuition and the cost of all textbooks, materials and fees associated with the course.	The Ohio Department of Education and Sylvania Schools bear the cost of the public college tuition. Private college tuition may be charged to the student, subject to caps and household income.
Sylvania Schools pays for textbooks and instructional tools, such as hardbound and electronic textbooks and software used for instruction.
Participants and/or parents pay for parking.
College waives course fee(s).	
	Participant/parent chooses:	Participant receives high school and college credit.	
	A-1: College credit only.	A-2: College and high school credit.		

Students must apply to and be accepted by the post-secondary institution they plan to attend. Each college follows its own admission requirements and will apply them in the same manner as to other college applicants. Students may enroll in multiple post-secondary institutions concurrently as appropriate.

Students must complete all enrollment requirements of the post-secondary institution and have a completed college or university schedule submitted to their Sylvania high school counseling department no later than the first day of the college or university semester for summer, fall, and spring semester courses.

Students seeking to participate in CCP must be academically assessed to determine eligibility by a college or university. Readiness is determined based on the review of an assessment exam such as the ACT, SAT, or Accuplacer. If the student’s scores do not indicate that the student is ready for college-level courses in any of the assessment exam subject areas, then the student can be considered conditionally eligible if the student has scored in a range near the threshold (calculated as one Standard Error of Measurement or SEM and provided by the Ohio Department of Higher Education) and if the student has met one of these conditions: (a) has a 3.0 cumulative GPA or (b) receives a

recommendation from their school counselor, principal, or career-technical advisor. See further information regarding these requirements from the Ohio Department of Education on the following excerpt for their website:

CCP PROGRAM DETAILS

Courses
Students may choose from a variety of college courses in the CCP program, but some restrictions exist.
First, a student participating in the CCP program must complete 15 semester credit hours of Level I courses that may be applied toward a certificate or degree prior to taking a Level II course.
Level I Courses include:
Transferable course – Part of CTAG, OTM, or TAG or equivalent at a private college/university
Course in computer science, information technology, anatomy, or physiology
Technical certificate course
Another course that may be approved by the Chancellor on an annual basis
Level II Courses include:
Any other college course that is not a Level I course Second, students may not enroll in any of the following courses:
One-on-one private instruction course
Course with fees that exceed amount set by Chancellor
Study abroad courses
Physical Education courses
Adult content courses (determined by the college/university)
Courses longer than a semester in length
P/F or S/U grades (unless the course is an internship or first-year academic/career success)
Remedial course and Sectarian religion course
Please note: A student may count an Advanced Placement course completed at the student’s high school toward the 15 semester credit hours with evidence that the student earned the required score on an examination covering the coursework.

Sylvania Schools cannot limit participation in CCP only to courses offered by the District.

Underperforming Student Rule
A student is placed on CCP Probation when the student:

Has earned lower than a cumulative 2.0 GPA in college courses, or
Withdraws from two or more courses in the same term

When on CCP Probation, the student:

May enroll in no more than one college course
If the student fails to unenroll from additional courses, the student’s family shall be held responsible for paying all tuition, fees, and textbook costs for courses from which the student was required to unenroll, and the student will be declared ineligible and dismissed from the program for the next term.
May not enroll in the college course in the same subject in which the student previously earned a grade of “D” or “F” for which the student received no credit.

A student faces CCP Dismissal when the student has met the definition of CCP Probation for two consecutive college terms. The following will then occur:

The student may not enroll in college courses for the following college term.
If the student fails to unenroll from courses, the student’s family shall be held responsible for paying all tuition, fees, and textbook costs for courses from which the student was required to dis-enroll, and the student will be declared ineligible and dismissed for an additional term.
After one college term on dismissal, the student may request the high school to allow the student to participate in the CCP program, and the high school shall determine whether the student may continue on dismissal, move to probation, or participate without restrictions.
A student who has been dismissed from the CCP program has the right to appeal his or her status.

Transportation
Students and/or parents are responsible for transportation to and from all college courses.

Limits on Participation
A student enrolling in College Credit Plus courses under Option B may not enroll in courses for more than the equivalent of:
Four academic school years if the student first enrolls in grade nine.
Three academic school years if the student first enrolls in grade ten.
Two academic school years if the student first enrolls in grade eleven.
One academic school year if the student first enrolls in grade twelve.
If a student enrolls for the first time mid-year, the above limits are pro-rated.

Awarding of Credit and Academic Requirements
Qualified students may earn up to 30 hours of college credit per academic year and no more than 120 hours of college credit while in the program, summer included as part of the academic year it precedes. In calculating that total, the credits of Sylvania Schools classes must also be taken into account, as they count toward the 30 total allowed credits. Under the CCP program,
post-secondary quarter hours are equal to .67 semester hours rounded to the nearest whole number. Follow this formula to determine the total number of college hours that may be attempted through CCP:

Total the number of Sylvania Schools credits attempted.
Multiply that number by 3.
Subtract that result from 30.
The resulting number is the total number of credits a student may attempt in the CCP program.

Example

A student is enrolled in 7.5 credits in high school. That number multiplied by 3 is
22.5. Subtracting that from 30 results in 7.5, which is therefore the total number of college credits that may be attempted.

Successful completion of a three or more credit hour college course will result in 1 Sylvania Schools credit. Fractional credits will be awarded proportionately, but only up to one credit.

College Credit	Sylvania Credit	
1	0.33	
2	0.67	
3	1	
4	1	
5	1	
6	1	

High school credit awarded for courses successfully completed under the CCP program shall count toward the graduation requirements and subject area requirements of Sylvania Schools. If a course comparable to one a participant

completed at a college is offered by the school, Sylvania Schools shall award comparable credit for the course completed at the college. If no comparable course is offered by the school, the governing entity or governing body shall grant an appropriate number of elective credits to the participant. Note that high school students may only receive high school credit one time for the same college course.

Honors & Advanced Placement Courses: If Sylvania currently offers an AP course in the same subject area as the CCP course which is being taken, the CCP course will be weighted to the AP scale. If Sylvania has a current Honors offering in the same subject area as the CCP course which is being taken, the CCP course will be weighted to the Honors scale. Whether a course is in the “same subject area” will be determined not just by the course title, but also upon review of the course content. A student seeking weighted credit should contact the building principal for a review of the course syllabus to make the determination before taking the course.

Credit Transfer
Students will receive college credit from the institution where they take the courses. Because of Ohio’s Transfer to Degree Guarantee, many entry–level course credits earned at an Ohio public college are guaranteed to transfer to any other Ohio Public College. Credits earned at private colleges or those a students wishes to transfer to out of state institutions will be evaluated by the institution that student seeks to attend.
These credits are not guaranteed to transfer.

Go to https://transfercredit.ohio.gov for more information.

CCP and High School Graduation
College Credit Plus does not replace the requirements to earn a high school diploma. This includes earning 18 points or more on Ohio’s End of Course Exams. Even if a student is enrolled in college courses, he or she must take the End of Course exams in English I, English II, Algebra I, Geometry, and Biology.

Students do not have to take the End of Course exams in American Government and American History if they are enrolled in College Credit Plus courses that are a direct substitute. A CCP student’s grades in these subjects will be used to earn End of Course Exam points according to the following conversion chart:

CCP Course Grade	Ohio Graduation Points	
A or B	5	
C	4	
D	3	
Not Applicable	2	
Not Applicable	1	
F, NC, or Drop	0	

Graduation requirements should be completed prior to graduation to participate in the graduation ceremony. However, the student may participate in the ceremonies if he/she is enrolled in college/university where the academic term ends after the high school’s graduation ceremony is over, with the recommendation of the high school principal. The student will then receive his/her diploma upon completion of all high school graduation requirements.

A student that is scheduled or anticipated to graduate from high school may not participate in the CCP program for any term that begins after the student’s scheduled or anticipated graduation date or any course offered during a summer term at an institution of higher education that begins during the student’s last quarter of high school.

Costs
Students taking courses through a public college will not have to pay tuition, textbooks, materials, or fees. Students may need to pay for equipment which they keep, such as tools or calculators, and they must provide their own transportation. Parking fees will also be the responsibility of the student/parent.

Students taking courses through a private college may be charged based on the particular private college and where the course is delivered, in accordance with law. Economically disadvantaged students who choose to attend a private school will not be charged. The amount students can be charged per credit hour may vary and cannot exceed $166.28. The college will waive fees and the district will pay for textbooks.

Students who exceed the 30 credit hour limit will be required to pay for course credits. If the number of credits conferred by a college partially exceeds the student’s maximum allowable credits, then the whole course shall be considered to exceed the maximum allowable credits. For the purposes of calculating the limitation of 30 college credit hours in one academic year, an academic year shall begin with the summer term.

Students will receive a pre-term notice of admission that includes the specific course registrations and credit hours at least fourteen days prior to the first day of classes for the term of enrollment. Additionally, Sylvania will notify students if the pre-term notice of admission indicates that they have exceeded the maximum allowable credits so they can either adjust their schedule or pay.

Students who fail or withdraw from any College Credit Plus course after the 14th calendar day after the course began will be held financially responsible for the full cost of the course. The district will recover all costs incurred by the district from the student/parent. Failure of college courses will harm a student’s high school academic standing as well as their college transcript. Grades and credits will be held until payment is received, subject to applicable law.

Academic and Social Responsibilities
Students enrolled in the College Credit Plus program continue to be subject to all Sylvania Schools’ policies and guidelines, including student discipline policies, the Code of Conduct, and the Athletic Code of Conduct where applicable. Students will also be expected to follow the rules and regulations set by the college or university. Students who engage in misconduct in one school may be subject to disciplinary action by the other school.

Once enrolled, students are eligible to receive advising from campus-based support services of that institution. Additionally, they will continue to have access to their school counselor and all other resources available to high school students.

Participation in College Credit Plus does not guarantee admission to college after high school. Students should follow the regular undergraduate application process for whatever college they plan to attend after high school.

If a student is expelled from Sylvania Schools while participating in the CCP program, the superintendent must send notice of the expulsion to the college(s) in which the student is enrolled. The notice will inform the student of the Board’s policy to deny high school credit for courses taken under the CCP program during the expulsion. A college may withdraw its acceptance of a student expelled by Sylvania Schools during participation in the CCP program.

A student who is expelled from Sylvania Schools is ineligible to apply to enroll in a college under the CCP program through Sylvania Schools.

PRECAUTIONS

Before deciding to participate in the program, Students and parents should consider the following points:

Future Plans
If students plan well, this program can assist them in making future education and career decisions and in exploring post-secondary education opportunities.

High School Graduation
Even if students participate in this program, they still must meet their high school graduation requirements in order to earn a high school diploma. Students and parents should review the requirements and academic standing with a high school counselor or principal, making sure that the number and types of courses they take will meet local graduation requirements. They should keep in mind that the grades earned in
post-secondary courses may affect a grade point average, eligibility to graduate, and scholarship opportunities.

Scheduling
CCP participating students must be enrolled full-time in grades 7-12 at Sylvania Schools.
If taking courses off the high school campus, participating in this program on a
part-time basis means that students must schedule classes at their Sylvania school and at a post-secondary institution. Yearly schedules and vacation times usually differ between the two. Sometimes, it may be difficult or impossible to take the courses a student wants at both schools because of scheduling conflicts.

College-level Work
College Credit Plus classrooms follow the same course syllabus, use the same textbook and materials, aspire to achieve the same learning outcomes, and are assessed using the same methods as the college course delivered on the college campus and held to the same grading standards. Students may find college-level classes to be more accelerated and academically challenging than high school courses. They must be able to work without supervision and exercise self-discipline both academically and socially.

Transportation
Students attending classes at both a high school and post-secondary institution must consider transportation between the two schools, making arrangements to arrive at classes on time on both campuses. Attendance and tardiness rules will not be waived or adjusted by either school.

Extracurricular Activities
High school students participating in this program may not be attending high school full-time. Eligibility requirements, as set forth by the Ohio High School Athletic
Association (OHSAA) state: Grades 9-12: “To be eligible, you must be currently enrolled in school and have received passing grades in a minimum of five one credit courses, or the equivalent, in the immediately preceding grading period.” Most College Credit Plus courses taken during a semester will equal one Carnegie unit. Students must check with a counselor to ensure that the course work in enrolled courses is compliant with OHSSA eligibility rules.

POTENTIAL BENEFITS
The program could benefit a student in several ways:

Students have the opportunity to expand their learning options.
Students have the chance to experience college-level work and college life prior to making a final decision about post-secondary education.
Students can take classes that academically challenge them or that cover areas of particular interest to them.
Students and their parents can use this opportunity to involve their high school counselor or principal in college and career planning.
Students can take college courses and receive both secondary (high school) and post-secondary (college) credits.
Students and parents can reduce the overall cost of a post-secondary education.

POTENTIAL RISKS
These are some areas for consideration prior to participating in this program:

Students will bear an increased responsibility for learning.

Students could incur increased financial obligations for their education if they choose to attend a private post-secondary institution.

Participation may decrease the time students have available for part-time employment.

Students may reduce their opportunities for participating in high school activities (athletics, music, band, etc.). Eligibility requirements must be monitored by the student. Assistance may be obtained from the athletic director upon request.

Students’ grades in your college course(s) will affect their high school grade point average and class standing which also could affect scholarship opportunities. In addition, students will be building a college transcript, and those credits will follow them should they enroll in the institution in the future and may transfer should they enroll in a different post-secondary institution.

Students will need to plan for increased time needed to travel to and from
post-secondary institutions if taking courses off the high school campus and plan for increased time for study.

College and high school vacations may not coincide. Students will need to attend college classes even if the high school is on winter or spring break or the high school is delayed or cancelled due to weather.

Due to different school year schedules students may not be eligible to participate in their graduation ceremony. Graduation requirements should be completed prior to graduation to participate in the graduation ceremony; however, a student may participate in the ceremonies if he or she is enrolled in a college or university where the academic term ends after the high school graduation ceremony is over with the recommendation of the high school principal. The student will then receive his or her diploma upon completion of all high school graduation requirements.

Students are not guaranteed to get the courses they want.

Students failing a college course may affect the credits they need to graduate from high school. Students may be at risk for not earning the necessary credits needed to graduate from high school.

Students failing a course or withdrawing after the 14th calendar day after the course began must pay the costs of the course. The district will recover from the student or parent all costs incurred by the district when and if a student fails a college course, whether through a formal class drop process or nonattendance.

Not all college credit may transfer to other colleges and universities, for example, some out of state colleges may not accept college credit earned in Ohio. Check with colleges in advance.

STEPS TO FOLLOW

Registration
Students interested in participating in the program will want to talk to their parents, high school counselors, and a representative of the post-secondary institution they plan to attend as far in advance of your possible post-secondary enrollment as possible.
Remember that any student wishing to participate must notify Sylvania Schools of his or her intent to participate, by April 1, if he or she plans to enroll in a summer, fall, or spring term for the upcoming school year. Follow this process each time you enroll in post-secondary courses.

Students must adhere to the process steps and deadlines listed below:

By February 1, 2019, in the years that students are in their sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth or eleventh grade, high schools will provide them and their parents with general information about the CCP program on the school district website and in other district communications.

By February 15, 2019, counseling will be provided through an informational meeting to interested sixth through eleventh grade students and their parents/guardians prior to participation in the College Credit Plus program. Students and their parents should attend this meeting and discuss the program with each other and a counselor.

By April 1, 2019, and as early as February 15, 2018, students will inform the building principal of their intent to participate by submitting the Letter of Intent to Participate form. (See Appendix A). Students must submit a written notice of their intent to participate in the upcoming academic year, by April 1, in accordance with section 3365.03 of the Ohio Revised Code, but may submit the written notice of intent to participate as early as February 15. Students desiring to participate in College Credit Plus in the summer are strongly encouraged to submit letters of intent and begin the admissions process starting in February and prior to the April 1 notice of intent deadline in order to improve chances of meeting summer registration timelines. This does not solidify your participation in the program. You still must be accepted by the post-secondary institution and develop a schedule that meets your academic and career needs. Students that fail to submit the letter of intent by April 1, 2019 will be denied access to the CCP program for the 2018-2019 school year.

During Regular School Scheduling,
Students must work with their counselors to appropriately schedule Sylvania Schools and CCP courses. This includes registering in classes required for graduation.
At this time, students should also complete all necessary online
post-secondary admission and registration forms. Students must follow the post-secondary institution’s requirements for CCP admission. Students may be required to take a college placement test to determine if they are college ready.
After students have completed the forms, they must request a transcript from their school counselor. Students cannot schedule at the university until this is complete.

After being accepted at the participating college or university, students must inform your high school counselor of their plans. At this time, they must follow the instructions of the college or university they plan to attend. The institution will guide students through orientation, scheduling, and classes. By law, each post-secondary institution must designate a college advisor for CCP students. This person must meet with their assigned students before the withdrawal date of any enrolled course. Sylvania Schools encourages students to reach out to their college advisor for career and college counseling/advising.

1. After students have scheduled at the university, they must bring a copy of your college schedule to your counselor. Until that is processed, students will still be registered for high school classes. If they face a schedule conflict, they must be able to work it out between the college and high school. If students face any changes in their schedule, they must bring them to their counselor. The schedule process of both Sylvania Schools and the chosen college or university must be followed each semester of college enrollment.

Any deviation from this procedure could jeopardize students’ enrollment in either college or high school courses. Students must keep in contact with their counselor.

Withdrawal
If a student decides he or she will no longer participate in the program before the term has ended, he or she must file withdrawal forms with the post-secondary institution and meet with his or her high school counselor to develop a new course schedule. Failure to file the necessary forms may result in a failing grade and the resulting costs detailed above. Withdrawal from the CCP course after the 14th day after the course began will result in a financial obligation for parent and/or student. The district will recover from the student and/or parent all costs incurred by the district when and if a student fails a college course or withdraws after the 14th day after the course began.

SYLVANIA COLLEGE CREDIT PLUS COURSES

The college courses set forth in Appendix B are taught by Sylvania Schools teachers.

Students opting to take the courses in Appendix B for college credit must follow the process outlined in this handbook, including applying to the post-secondary institution.

Students who take these courses and do not apply for college credit will be given a written notice outlining that they are not receiving college credit.

CONCLUSION
This handbook should have helped answer questions about the College Credit Plus program. Students and parents should carefully consider the advantages the program offers and the risks it entails. Discussion with all parties, including parents, Sylvania Schools counselors, and college counselors, is paramount. Any questions not answered by this handbook should be directed to a guidance counselor or principal. Questions beyond those can be answered by the Sylvania Schools designated point of CCP contact.

Designated Point of Contact
The designated point of contact for the College Credit Plus program acts as a liaison to the state of Ohio to monitor future changes or amendments to the program.
