Concurrent Enrollment (Special Admit) Expectations and Responsibilities
Special Admit Enrollment
Title 2, Chapter 5, Article 1, Section 48800 of the California Education Code allows the governing board of any school
district to determine which students would benefit from advanced scholastic or vocational work. The intent of this
section of the California Education Code is to provide educational enrichment opportunities for a limited number of
eligible pupils, rather than reduce current course requirements of elementary and secondary schools.
Contra Costa College interprets “advanced scholastic” coursework as those courses designated as degree applicable
(DA) in the CCC Catalog.
Contra Costa College reserves the right to exclude or limit enrollment of special admit students into impacted programs
and other programs or courses based on health, safety, instructional methodology, faculty constraints, or legal
requirements.
Students enrolling in PE activity courses are subject to the 10% limit for each section.
New and returning high school students must submit a college application (online) along with a Concurrent Enrollment
(Special Admit) Form during in-person registration. Continuing high school students need not reapply.
Concurrent students may enroll in person during open registration. Please submit your application online prior to your
enrolment date. Bring your signed concurrent form, and proof of prerequisite completion if enrolling in a course that
has a prerequisite. Concurrent (Special Admit) students registering for CCC courses at LMC or DVC before these dates
will be dropped from the CCC classes.
Student Responsibilities
You may register for approved classes only. Registering for non-approved classes will result in a loss of Concurrent
(Special Admit) enrollment privileges.
All coursework taken at CCC become a permanent part of your college academic history. Grades received or excessive
drops have implications for future status involving financial assistance, athletic eligibility, academic standing, etc.
Clear prerequisites and arrange for testing, if necessary.
You are responsible for reviewing and abiding by all academic and student life policies in the Schedule of Classes and
the College Catalog.
You are required to meet all academic deadlines.
Books and materials must be purchased for all classes. They are not loaned or given out free of charge.
Concurrent (Special Admit) students are exempt from enrollment fees if enrolled in less than 12 units. However
concurrently enrolled students must pay the student representation fee ($1) and the Student Activity Fee ($5) which is
optional. These fees are due each semester. Please see the catalog for more information.
CCC is an adult academic learning environment and you are expected to behave accordingly.
By signing the space provided on the front of this form, you agree that you are eligible to enroll as a Concurrent
(Special Admit) student and will abide by all CCC policies and procedures. Additionally, you agree that you have
reviewed these expectations with your parent or guardian.
Home schooled students must provide verification of an Affidavit for Home Schooling, filed with the Department of
Education, at the time of registration.
Parent or Guardian Information
Special Admit students are treated like every other college student. All college coursework is governed by the Family
Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) which allows release of academic information, including grades, to the
student only – regardless of age. Academic information is not released to parents or third parties without written
consent of the student. Upon consent by the student, information is only released to the authorized party in person or
in writing. (NOTE: The student’s signature on the front of this form may, or may not, authorize release of academic
information. If authorized, it may be release only to the parent/guardian who signed the form.)
CCC Admissions and Records Office does not keep daily attendance records for students. Parents should not contact
college offices or instructors with the expectation of accessing their student’s attendance or other information.
Review your student’s Concurrent (Special Admit) Enrollment Form with him or her. Please be aware that all
coursework at CCC becomes a permanent record on the student’s academic history; grades received or excessive drops
have implications for future student status at the college, including financial assistance, athletic eligibility, etc.
By entering a college environment, your son or daughter will be exposed to a diverse population in education programs
designed for an adult learner that may involve sensitive topics that might be considered controversial or offensive in
the secondary setting. CCC will not change course content or curriculum to accommodate Concurrent (Special Admit)
students.
