7. Student Eligibility Ohio Revised Code 3365.03
House Bill 49 provision modified the eligibility process for College Credit Plus
Effective Academic Year (summer term)
Three distinct steps to participating in College Credit Plus:
Eligibility Determination (statewide standard)
College/university Admission (institutional standard)
Course Placement (institutional prerequisites)

8. Step 1!

9. Student Eligibility Step 1: Eligibility Determination
~ ACCUPLACER ~ MapleSoft

If score at or above assessment threshold score in at least one sub-test, the student is ELIGIBLE to participate

10. Student Eligibility
For a student to be “conditionally” eligible for College Credit Plus:
If a student scores within a “conditional range” (one standard error of measurement) below the remediation-free threshold AND the student has a 3.0 GPA, the student is eligible to participate OR

13. Student Eligibility Step 2: College/University Admission

Institution might have higher or more selective criteria for admission (compared to the eligibility threshold scores)
Admission and eligibility steps might occur concurrently (open enrollment/admissions institutions)

14. Step 3!

15. Student Eligibility Step 3: Course Placement
If eligible and admitted, then student meets with college advisor to discuss course placement
Institution may have additional prerequisites for courses
For example, the student may be eligible for the program, but if test scores do not meet prerequisite, the student may not be able to take specific courses

17. Assessment Test Responsibility
Requires institution of higher education to pay for one assessment exam to determine student eligibility
Once the student has an eligible score, the university is no longer required to provide an assessment (e.g., juniors testing at high schools)
University can use an alternate test, such as Accuplacer, in place of ACT or SAT (i.e., “treating everyone the same”)
ACT – prepaid voucher codes – available now
SAT – voucher codes (after use) – estimated available Summer 2018
Prior eligibility
If a student was deemed eligible in , , or , then the student will automatically be eligible to participate in and beyond.

Knowledge of human cultures and the physical and natural world;
Intellectual and practical skills, including inquiry and analysis, critical and creative thinking, oral and written communication, quantitative literacy, in­formation literacy, teamwork, and problem solving; and
