CCP at CCCC
Cary High School is located in Wake County, but Central Carolina Community College is another option for tuition-free dual enrollment courses as well. Their campus location is a better option for some of our students, so they do accept Cary High School students for CCP courses when seats are available. In order to apply, simply have a 2.8 unweighted GPA or higher and complete the application below.
