Dual Enrollment - Career & College Promise


Advising and Registration

  • An advising appointment is required for all first-time CCP students.
  • Returning students are encouraged to schedule an advising appointment, though it is not mandatory.
    • Returning students must create a course plan for review by an advisor in Self Service. (Video Tutorial)
    • If additional advising is required, an appointment is necessary.
  • Check Self-Service to identify your assigned advisor and book time with them if needed for guidance on course selection:

  • Review the approved pathway(s) to determine eligible college courses, including options under:
  • Carefully consider high school classes needed for graduation, short- and long-term goals, and future college plans. Discuss these with an advisor during the appointment to ensure the course selection aligns with goals.
  • Select college courses that are at least three credits to qualify for Dual Enrollment.
  • Avoid enrolling in unauthorized courses, as this may result in removal from those classes even after the semester has begun.

  • Consider your high school schedule, work, sports, and graduation requirements when selecting CCP classes.
    • For in-person JCC classes, consult with the high school guidance counselor regarding early-release needs, if applicable.

  • Ensure you have access to Blackboard for viewing class grades, e-texts, and online course materials.
  • Regularly review your JCC class schedule in Self-Service, checking that courses show a "registered" status to confirm enrollment.
  • Monitor JCC email regularly and contact JOLT (Jaguar Office of Learning Technology) for support with email or Outlook if needed.

  • Be aware that dropping a course after its start date may result in financial responsibility for any applicable student fees.
  • Check your account balance in Self-Service and ensure that it is paid by the specified deadline to avoid holds or issues with future registration.

  • Regularly check the CCP Calendar, JCC Academic Calendar, and course syllabi for important dates, especially for billing review and payment, to avoid being dropped from classes due to non-payment.

  • Expect to dedicate approximately three hours per week for each course credit hour.
    • For example, two 3-credit courses will require around 20 hours of work per week.
  • JCC Library provides free tutoring, available on the Jaguar Tutoring webpage.

  • Note that fully online science labs require costly lab kits. Consider taking science labs on campus if a lower cost is preferred.
  • Plan to complete high school-level science courses before enrolling in college-level science classes (e.g., high school chemistry before college chemistry).

  • Once your advisor locks your schedule, submit any desired changes for review using Self-Service
    • Changes should be minimal and thoughtfully considered, as approval may take time.
  • Use Self-Service to add or drop courses before the start of the semester. After classes begin, use the drop/add form until the census date, and the withdrawal form after that.

  • Meet with a high school guidance counselor to discuss goals for graduation year.
  • For students planning to continue at JCC, connect with the Student Success Center about applying, filling out the FAFSA, and completing other necessary forms.
