Early College enrollment in college courses by high school students is a benefit provided by Cerro Coso Community College. This process applies to all students who are currently enrolled in the K-12 system, including adult school programs. Cerro Coso does not usually admit students who are below the 9th grade level. However, exceptions may be made for young students who have been or can be designated as qualifying for the "Gifted and Talented" (GATE) program. Students in the latter category must be identified and documented by the school district office, and then enrollment is restricted to those college classes that fall within their “Gifted and Talented” status.
In order for students to be placed in course work in a quick and effective manner, it is important that the process for enrollment is followed and that all instructions are read and understood by the parent or guardian, prospective student and school official.
