What is the Concurrent Enrollment Options Program (CEOP) at COTC?
CEOP is a COTC sponsored program that allows high school students, 9th through 12th grade, to enroll in college courses at a reduced cost. The student is responsible for half of the regular tuition and the total cost of textbooks. Students receive college credit for the coursework and may request high school credit. This option is available year round.
