College Readiness

General Information

CCPrep’s College Readiness program allows students to save time and money! Individualized instruction from our highly-qualified instructors ensures a student’s successful completion of the Accuplacer exam, which evaluates a student's preparedness for college-level courses. Former students who have completed the college readiness program have enrolled in the University of the District of Columbia and American University fully equipped to take on college-level work.

Why should YOU attend college?

College graduates earn more on average!

Much like GED recipients, the average worker with a Bachelor's Degree may earn approximately $1 million more over a lifetime than a worker without post-secondary education, according to the U.S. Department of Education. College degree holders are also less likely to be unemployed!

You COULD live a longer life!

Just one additional year of college education can decrease your mortality rate by 15-19% - in fact, high school graduates have a mortality rate that is DOUBLE those with some college experience or a full college degree!

College degree holders are more likely to be homeowners

A 2016 report from a real estate company showed 75% of all home buyers were college educated in that year, compared to just 11% who had only a high school diploma, and 14% who attended some college, but did not earn a degree.

You can improve the lives of those around you

Approximately 40% of working-age adults with a Bachelor's degree volunteered in their community within the past year, compared to just 17% of high school graduates without any college education. So if you don't take on our College Readiness Program for yourself - do it to improve your community!

The possibilities are literally ENDLESS! The only limit to what you could study at the college level is what YOU choose!
