Myers Park Plan (Based on Course availability and Counselor recommendation)At Myers Park High School we are pleased to have an administration that supports students completing an aggressive dual enrollment course load. However, note that completing a full associates in 2 years is not an easy decision. We will work to get student very close to a full associates. Completing an associates takes 4 semesters of 5 CPCC classes each year. With NC graduation requirements and program limitations most students offset this workload with summer courses.
Associates Degree requires 60 college credit hours
Due to the large size of our program, private advising with families is not available. We encourage families to join a Q&A session. After students apply for the program each semester of their Junior and Senior years they wee receive a private advising worksheet and opportunity to schedule a 1on1 meeting. |
