K-12 Grades
Dual Enrollment: CCAP & Non-CCAP
Dual Enrollment offers high school students the opportunity to enroll in VVC courses and receive college credit while pursuing their high school diploma. Dual Enrollment is divided into two areas: CCAP and Non-CCAP (formerly Concurrent Enrollment). Courses are offered in a variety of disciplines and fields including general education and career pathway courses that align with local industry. Students can take these courses at their high school or at VVC depending on the agreement between the high school district and the college district.
Admission to VVC
All students must complete VVC's Admissions application through CCCApply and follow the Steps to Enrollment for Dual Enrollment students. Note: Home School students, who wish to enroll as a Non-CCAP student, must provide a copy of the affidavit which has been filed with the California Superintendent of Public Instruction to the Admissions and Records office prior to registration.
CCAP - College and Career Access Pathways
Assembly Bill No. 288 - Established the College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) Students enroll in a VVC course offered as part of a College and Career Access Pathways (CCAP) partnership agreement between the Victor Valley College and a local high school district. The classes are taught at a local high school campus during school hours. Classes taught at a high school are restricted and are only open to high school students. These courses are completely free for students, and students receive both high school and college credit.
