Concurrent Enrollment

Concurrent Enrollment (CE) is a Colorado State funded educational program that students may access through Cherry Creek Options. CE allows high school students (9th-12th grade) to enroll in college-level, guarantee transfer courses while still in high school. Cherry Creek School District will pay the tuition portion of that college education. Families must reimburse the school district for any course not successfully completed (grade of "D", "F", "I" or "W"). CE allows students to enroll in a maximum of twelve credit hours per semester. However, none of the courses may be online or online-hybrid courses. To qualify for the Concurrent Enrollment Program students must:

1. Be in 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade and be enrolled, full time, in the Cherry Creek Options Program for a minimum of 12 months immediately prior to the beginning of the CE courses
2. Be a student of good standing in previous course work and show a history of strong standardized test scores
3. Have the social maturity to excel in a college environment
4. Receive a minimum score on the ACT, SAT, or Accuplacer
