Advanced Education @ CRC
Advanced Education
Cosumnes River College encourages 11th and 12th grade students (and other high school students under special conditions) to enroll for advanced educational enrichment with the approval of their principal/counselor and parent/guardian. High school students may take up to 6 units or two classes. California residents are exempt from enrollment fees, but not from books/material costs. Fees for non-residents still apply.
Concurrently enrolled high school students earn college credit and get a jumpstart on classes that may apply toward a certificate or degree at Cosumnes River College and/or transfer to a four-year college or university.
