WHAT TO EXPECT
You probably have lots of questions about what you can expect as you start CCP classes. Your CCP adviser will be your resource.听
Their three biggest tips:
- Read your syllabus so you know what to expect in class.
- Review the academic calendar and deadlines for your class.
- Know how you earn your grade. Is your grade based on attendance, assignments, exams, discussion or a combination?
Grades
果冻传媒 does not send you mid-term grades or grade cards. If you are taking classes online or in person on campus, you will be able to check grades via Blackboard, our online course management system. You also can check with your instructor or professor. Do not call your CCP adviser for your grades. It is 果冻传媒鈥檚 policy not to give grades out over the phone.
果冻传媒 is required by state law to send final grades for each student taught by a University faculty member to their high school at the end of each semester. We automatically send official transcripts at the end of each term.
Class attendance
You are required to attend all class sessions. Contact your professor if you are going to miss a class. If your absence will be extended, contact your CCP adviser as well as your professor.
Keep in mind that if your high school is not in session because of conferences, fog/snow days, spring break, etc., The University of Toledo may still be open. You are expected to attend your 果冻传媒 classes on those days.
Academic support
As a CCP student, you have access to all the听academic support services 果冻传媒 offers. Additionally, you will have access to all other campus resources.
Check your 果冻传媒 email often. Along with myUT, it鈥檚 how the University communicates with you. You can check your email by logging into myUT and clicking on the Rockets Email link on the right in the "Email and UTAD Account" section. Contact our IT Help Desk for help sending email messages directly to your phone.听

Just for Parents and Guardians
CCP is a great opportunity for your student. But it also can be a bit scary. We want our students to be independent and to advocate for themselves. Yet the stakes are high.听
Here are a few tips from our CCP advisers on how you can help your student succeed:
- Have frequent conversations with your student. Ask them what鈥檚 going on in class, what assignments they have coming up. This can help them stay on track.
- Look at the course syllabus and course schedule together. There is a lot of information in a syllabus. Make sure your student understands what is expected of them.听
- Make sure your student has all the necessary books and course materials.
- If you notice or suspect issues, contact a CCP adviser as soon as possible so we can support your student.
