Jumpstart college to advance your career

The Career Pathways program gives Maryland public high school students the opportunity to earn free college credits when they successfully complete approved Career and Technical Education (CTE) Pathway programs. Credits are applied to your college transcript after you graduate from high school and enroll in CCBC classes. This means there’s no need to repeat the same courses in college!

High school students who have completed all required credits in an approved CTE Career Completer program, earned a technical grade point average of B or better, and received a grade of C or higher in each course may be eligible to receive free articulated college credits upon enrollment at CCBC.

  1. Apply to CCBC
  2. Submit your official high school transcript to CCBC by email or mail.
  3. After you enroll, email PriorLearning@ccbcmd.edu to start the evaluation process. Please note that some agreements require a portfolio review by CCBC faculty.

Note: Students must be enrolled at CCBC before credits are issued.
