CVCC Selection process Class of 2015
Instruction Page for Application Packet If you have any interest in attending CVCC during your junior and/or senior years, make sure you follow the application instructions. Application pick up is on December 7th in the Guidance Office. It is important for you to read all directions thoroughly and completely. You will want to familiarize yourself with the process. Even if you are remotely interested..pick up a packet!
Selection Point System Nordonia only has three seats available for most of the 21 programs at CVCC. To determine which students get these limited seats, a selection process is in place for all sophomores. Students receive points for each activity. The student with the most points gets his/her first choice of program. Once programs are full, students may be placed in their second choice and/or on the waiting list for their first choice program.
Application Process Checklist You should utilize this checklist to ensure you are completing each required activity. You will need to follow deadlines carefully to ensure you are receiving the maximum points possible. Sign-in at CVCC for Parent Night Make sure all of the correct forms are returned ON TIME! You need to be sure to pass all of your classes this year so you are able to attend CVCC.
Two Teacher Recommendations You may give the recommendations to two teachers of your choice. You may ask any teacher in the building and are not limited to teachers you have just this year. You should give them to teachers that know you well and know your potential both inside and outside the classroom. Give teachers plenty of time to complete and submit the forms. There will be many students asking teachers to complete the same form. That means don’t wait until January 16th, and especially not January 22nd!
Parent Response Form Must be submitted with application and field trip permission form by Tuesday, January 22nd. Make sure you have read through the entire packet first and understand the selection process.
Field Trip Consent Form Must be signed and submitted with application and parent response form by Tuesday, January 22nd. All students that have submitted their papers by January 22nd, will attend a field trip to CVCC on January 30th or 31st. This will give students the opportunity to spend some time in one program of their choice. Students may also attend make-up field trips, in subsequent months, to visit another program of their choice . Students submitting their application after the deadline may still attend one of the make-up field dates.
Application Form (front) Must be submitted with parent response form and field trip consent form by Tuesday, January 22nd. Be sure to fill in ALL sections of the application. This includes the “Primary Phone Contact” in the box at the top as well as BOTH student and parent signatures and the question on the back of the form. Incomplete applications will be returned to the student. Student will need to indicate their first choice of program by marking a 1 next to that program, as well as their second and third choices (2 and 3).
Application Form (back) Be sure to answer the question at the top of the page (regarding what influenced the student most in their decision to attend CVCC). Be sure BOTH the student and parent signatures are complete. Incomplete applications will be returned to the student.
Graduation Requirements -In order to receive a diploma from Nordonia High School a student needs to satisfy all of these requirements. -These graduation requirements need to be looked at carefully when considering CVCC so you can ensure a timely graduation. -If anything is missing or lacking as of right now a plan should be put in place to make up those credits.
Planning Out a Schedule -Every student is different but this is a typical schedule that is set up for students who go to CVCC. -If anything is lacking or missing, classes can be taken over the summer or in some cases can be offered through CVCC. Once a student has applied to CVCC, their schedule will be looked at to ensure a timely graduation.
Important Things to Remember • It is very important that you pass all of your classes this year. If you attend a 2-year program at CVCC during your junior and senior years, you will only have time to take 6 classes at Nordonia. • If you have more than 6 classes (English, math, science, social studies, etc.) that you need to fulfill towards graduation requirements, you may not be able to attend CVCC and graduate on time. • CVCC programs earn 3.5 credits each year. These credits usually count only towards elective credit with some exceptions during the first year of the program. • Understand that you may be limited if there are certain selective courses that you wish to take (i.e. AP courses or higher level foreign language). These classes are offered in limited quantities and may conflict with the time you attend CVCC. • If you are even just considering CVCC, be sure to pick up the application packet on Friday, December 7th so that you receive the points for this activity. If you change your mind later on, it may hurt your chances of getting in if you didn’t receive those points. You can always let Miss Tytko know if you decide later on not to attend CVCC.
