CAP Student Eligibility Requirements
To participate in CAP courses, students must meet the following criteria:
- Junior or senior standing*
- Have a minimum of a "B" average (as defined as a minimum 80% GPA)
- Meet all CAP course prerequisites and corequisites as noted in Appendix F of the CAP Handbook.
Additional participation criteria may also apply and is determined by each individual high school.
*Exception: Sophomores who are in advanced courses may be permitted to take CAP courses with the approval of the Early College Pathways Coordinator. A formal written request, with documentation of advanced status, (i.e., proof of advanced coursework or a letter of recommendation and high school transcript) must be submitted to the Early College Pathways Coordinator showing that the student is capable of taking college courses. Once these criteria are determined to have been met by the student, the student must meet all placement and prerequisite/corequisite criteria for the particular course(s) in order for the student to be eligible to take the CAP course of interest.
Placement Criteria
Site coordinators and/or school counselors are required to verify that placement requirements (and any prerequisite or corequisites) for each course have been met. The Early College Pathways Coordinator is available to address any questions regarding placement.
