College Credit Now allows you to earn college credits while you are still in high school, for a drastically reduced rate. Allowing you to get a jumpstart on your future, whatever your dreams may be.

Here are a Few of the Benefits

Get Ahead

The credits you receive from the College Credit Now classes you take in high school are transferable to most community colleges and four-year universities. It is always a good idea to contact the college or university ahead of time to check on the most recent requirements.

Save Money

While local colleges cost $80-200+ per credit, you can take any College Credit Now classes available at your high school and earn college credit for $30 a year.

Ensure Success

The experience and confidence you gain from taking College Credit Now courses will prepare you for a successful transition from high school to college life.

Access to Student Services

In addition to earning college credit, you will have access to Chemeketa's tutoring and library services.

Priority Registration

If you decide to continue your education at Chemeketa, you'll get the opportunity to register for classes earlier. Students register for Chemeketa classes based on the number of Chemeketa credits that they have earned – and CCN credits count toward your total.

How CCN Works

Each high school in the Chemeketa Community College district has different College Credit Now courses available to students. You can discover what's available at your school by visiting your high school counselor.

To become a College Credit Now student you will need to first complete the College Credit Now admission application, see the apply section for more instructions. Once your application is processed and you have received the welcome email containing your login information you can then register for your College Credit Now course through My Chemeketa.

Students are responsible for registering within the registration period to ensure they receive college credit. Please view our CCN 2026-2027 Student Calendar and Student Handbook for more information. 

Cost 

The cost for credit earned through CCN is $30 per student per year and you can take as many classes as are available to them at their school. Fees are paid directly to your high school.

If you are unable to cover the additional cost of College Credit Now classes, contact your high school counselor and find out about resources that may be available through the school.

Taking college courses while still in high school can provide many opportunities to a motivated student; however, with these opportunities come significant responsibilities. Check out this CCN Flowchart to help you understand what some of those responsibilities are. 

Students need to understand the importance of their official college record with regard to further education and employment opportunities as well as eligibility for Federal Financial Aid and scholarships.

Prior to enrolling in a CCN course, we recommend that students discuss these implications with their school counselor, instructor, parents, and CCN Advisors in order to make an informed decision. CCN Advisors can help ensure that college courses are being taken with purpose. Please refer to our Advising 101 guide.
