Please print and complete the College Opportunity Fund (COF) paper application and return it to the PPCC High School Programs Office (Fax: 719.502.3040, or scan and email to HighSchoolPrograms@ppcc.edu). Because there can be problems associated with the online application for high school aged students, please complete the paper application so that we can ensure that your COF account has been set up correctly. 

What is Concurrent Enrollment?

PSEO has transitioned to a new title, “Concurrent Enrollment”. New or old terminology, it’s a great opportunity that provides high school students the chance to earn college or vocational credit toward a diploma, certificate or degree at a Colorado college. At the same time, the credits also count toward a high school diploma.

Students are eligible for tuition reimbursement for up to six credit hours per semester. School Districts determine how and what they will reimburse. Normally, students are responsible for classroom fees, books, and transportation.

How do I know I am ready for a Concurrent Enrollment?

  • Placement in courses will depend on placement test scores or ACT/SAT scores.
  • Classes must be college level; remedial or basic skills courses are not eligible for CE/PSEO.

 Why should I take Concurrent Enrollment courses?

  • Earn college credit and high school credit at the same time.
  • Save money! By earning a C or better, your school district pays for part of your college education
  • Get ahead in the classes in your interest area.
  • Learn new or advanced areas of study. 
  • Guaranteed transfer courses offered at PPCC may be transferred to accredited Colorado 4-year colleges or universities.

 When do Concurrent Enrollment courses start?

  • CE/PSEO courses are regular college courses. Check the current course schedule.
  • Registration deadline is the Friday prior to the start of classes for that semester. 

Where are Concurrent Enrollment courses held?

  • CE/PSEO courses can be taken at any PPCC campus: Centennial, Rampart Range, Downtown Studio, or the new Falcon campus. Many courses are offered online (for an additional fee).
