CCP Pathways & Course Offerings
You are eligible to take any Level I course from MVNU, provided you meet any prerequisite requirements.
Once you have completed 15 credit hours in Level I, you may proceed to Level II, which is any college course in the MVNU Catalog that is not a Level I course and which is not excluded. One-on-one private lessons, study abroad courses, remedial courses, and sectarian (religious) courses are excluded from State of Ohio funding.
A more directed way to complete the 15 credit hours is to take the 15-hour CORE Pathway below, followed by a 15- to 25-hour SPECIALIZED Pathway. These groups of courses will help you progress toward your desired college major while also meeting many of your high school graduation requirements.
Several pathways are outlined below. The 15-hour CORE Pathway includes courses that are typically required at any college regardless of a student’s choice of major. The 15- to 26-hour SPECIALIZED Pathway is designed with a certain major in mind. The core pathway is designed to be combined with a specialized pathway to create a 30 hour pathway. The core pathway is recommended for students who only take a limited number of classes through CCP and for students who haven’t chosen a major. If you aren’t sure where to start, follow the Core Pathway.
MVNU has developed these sample pathways in collaboration with local high school counselors and MVNU professors. We are always willing to work with you to customize a pathway to help meet your high school graduation requirements and your personal college goals. You may progress beyond the 30-hour pathway in subsequent years by working with your CCP adviser to find appropriate courses that align with college goals.
