Senior Vice President of Instruction and Student Services Dr. Deborah Grimes said that transfer courses are weighted the same as Advanced Placement for grade point averages on high school transcripts. “Many of our CCP students earn enough credits for a degree or credential by the time they graduate from high school. Tuition is free for all students enrolled in the pathway programs.”
