Where do the classes meet?

What are the benefits?
- CCP allows you to earn college credits while in high school.
- This will save you money on college tuition (CCP classes are tuition-free).
- CCP helps gain college credits in order for your student to finish his/her college journey sooner.
- Classes taken through Stanly Community College introduce students to the college experience and help them be more prepared upon entering the university setting.
- If a university is not the right fit for your student, CCP can help him/her get a jump start on his/her career plans or help him/her attain job training, skills, and certifications.
