Secondary instructors will ensure the articulated class competency records
become part of the student's official record.

have a "C" average or better for all Business Education/Business classes
and a GPA of 2.00 or better in all subjects taken at the secondary level.
The student must meet all admissions requirements and be
officially enrolled at CVCC to be eligible for credit via articulation.
The student must officially declare a degree or certificate
program with a CVCC counselor at the time of enrollment.
The Division Chair or his/her faculty designee will be
responsible for evaluating the official high school transcript and
competency profile record and recommending college credit to the Admissions
and Records Office at CVCC based on the stated conditions in the applicable
Articulation Agreement.
Enrollment at CVCC must occur within one year after
graduation from an area high school. If more than sixteen months have
elapsed since high school graduation, a student seeking college credit for
high school course work must obtain permission from the Division Chair or
his/her designee.
The competencies will be reviewed annually by a committee
of secondary and post secondary instructors for currency and completeness.
Recommended changes at the secondary level will be referred to the Career
and Technical Education Resource Center. Recommended changes at the post
secondary level will be referred to the appropriate CVCC Curriculum Advisory
Committee.
