    • After activating your Titan account, please log into your GTCC Titan Email and check it frequently.  Registration instructions will be sent to your Titan email only.

Please keep in mind that the purpose of CCP is for eligible high school students to earn college credits towards a college degree, diploma, or certificate. Dual credit for high school graduation requirements is a bonus, but should not be what drives course selection. Courses in the CCP transfer pathways should be selected based on the published bachelor degree plan for the major at the university the student intends to transfer to after high school. Students cannot exceed 61 credit hours for the college transfer pathways.

Next Steps for CCP Students who plan to attend GTCC in the fall after high school graduation:

 

Summer CCP Eligibility:

Your graduation date determines if you are eligible as a high school CCP student or a traditional college student for the summer term.  If your graduation date is before May 16th, you will be a traditional college student for the summer term, but GTCC must receive your official final high school transcript by May 15th.   If your high school graduation date is after May 15tth, you may continue for the summer term as a CCP student.  If you are attending as CCP for summer, you are still restricted to the CCP pathway.

Summer and Fall Registration:

Registration opens in April for Summer and Fall.  Even though you are graduating, your registration for fall will be done through the CCP Office because your high school hold will not be removed until July 1st and this prevents you from registering through Self Service or Navigate. You will be able to make schedule changes after July 1st in Navigate or Self Service and be able to register yourself for future semesters.  A new advisor will be assigned to you during the fall semester.

Please let us know that you are graduating when you send your registration request for fall to CCP@gtcc.edu. 

Course Registration for both summer and fall begins in April. CCP registration instructions will be sent to your Titan email account around March 1st.

LIMITED ENROLLMENT PROGRAMS:  If you are applying for limited enrollment programs, apply to GTCC and then follow that department’s application instructions/deadlines.
