Career and College Ready Graduate (CCRG)

2024-2025 Update: The CCRG program is not optional for the 2024-2025 academic year. There has been no change to the CCRG legislation. The program implementation will proceed in the same manner as it did during the 2023-2024 academic year.
Career and College Ready Graduate (CCRG) program is a response to legislation (S.L. 2015-241, Section 10.13 amended by S.L. 2016-94 and S.L. 2018-5). The intent of the legislation is to provide an opportunity for high school students to ensure remediation-free placement into the NC Community College System (NCCCS).
The State Board of Community Colleges (SBCC) in consultation with the State Board of Education (SBOE) is required to develop a program that introduces the college developmental math, reading, and English curriculum prior to high school graduation. High school seniors that are not career and college ready by the end of their junior year, will have opportunities for college remediation prior to high school graduation through cooperation with community college partners.
For questions regarding the Career and College Ready Graduate (CCRG) program, contact Dr. Erica Shoulders-Royster.
