Program Cost

There is no cost for tuition for this program. Students will be responsible for purchasing any textbooks. Cost will vary or there may be no cost involved.

Transfer of Units

The California Community College (CCC) courses we have selected are transferable to all UC and CSU schools. We have selected courses that can be applied to the general education requirements of most campuses.

If you’re considering attending a private or an out-of-state school, call the admissions office of the universities in question and ask about the transfer of California Community College units, though we have found that the vast majority of colleges accept these units as part of general education course work.

Online Course Offerings - Fall 2020

The Early College Credit course offerings for Fall 2020 are:

• General Psychology (Psychology 1001 CRN 7168, 7169, 7171)
• Introduction to Humanities (Humanities 1001 CRN 7098)
• Introduction to Sociology (Sociology 1001 CRN 7181, 7182)

Courses are offered on a rotating basis so returning students can take a new class and new students can take a class that may have already been offered.

Students interested in enrolling in a fall course should have a free period. These are IGETC courses that satisfy freshman/sophomore level general education requirements. AP students need to be sure not to take overlapping courses (AP Psychology students should not sign up for psychology classes). There is no cost for the course, although some courses may require the purchase of a textbook.

Register

Review the courses offered as part of the ECC program this session. Meet with your counselor to plan your schedule, including taking the online courses.

Applications for enrollment can be obtained from Principal Kevin Cushing.

Once you are registered, Carondelet will create class lists in a Schoology Group, hold an orientation session, and monitor student progress through each course.
