Once you have applied to CCC, you will receive an email with your myClackamas username, password, and CCC student ID number. Be sure to keep this information! You will need it to register for your college courses, check grades and eventually request transcripts.

Advanced College Credit (ACC) Registration
ACC classes are college courses taken at your high school and taught by an approved high school instructor. To earn college credit for ACC classes, students must register through CCC during specific registration periods while taking the high school course. ACC classes are $10 per credit, charged directly to the student. Students on free or reduced lunch can to their high school counselor to have their ACC fees waived.
All ACC students are expected to read the ACC Student Handbook to learn more about the ACC program and to understand the expectations of an ACC student before registering for their ACC class(es). ACC students should also be aware of any required prerequisite courses for their ACC classes.
A prerequisite is a specific course that must be completed before you can take another course. Students should refer to the high school course catalog, talk to their high school counselor and/or view the CCC Course Descriptions to see the CCC pre-requisites for each of their college courses to determine if there are prerequisites that must be met in order to enroll in ACC courses.

High School Students Taking Classes at CCC
High school students are welcome to take classes online or on campus at CCC! If you are not planning on having your high school or school district pay for your classes, you can apply and register for classes just as a traditional college student. If you are expecting to have your courses paid for by your high school or school district, you must talk to your high school counselor before registering for classes at CCC. Some high schools and school districts require meeting with the High Schools Connections advisor at CCC to complete additional paperwork prior to registering.
If you are under 16 and want to take a CCC class, you will need to get permission from the instructor and fill out the CCC Under 16 Enrollment Consent Form. Please contact hsconnections@clackamas.edu if you have any questions about how to take CCC classes while still in high school.
