College Registration Guidelines
The following steps outline registration guidelines for college level Pikes Peak State College courses through Concurrent Enrollment at TCA College Pathways.
Current CP Students: To qualify for college level courses, students must first take the Accuplacer college entrance exam (see below) or provide equivalent SAT or ACT scores. After first semester sophomores have attended a Pre-College Advising Session and scored college ready on any of the assessments listed, they will need request from Frank Haist, fhaist@asd20.org, that a College Readiness Assessment Form (CRAF/Green Form) be sent to their CP teachers.
Students New to CP: To qualify for college level courses, students must first take the Accuplacer college entrance exam (see below) or provide equivalent SAT or ACT scores.
- Apply online to Pikes Peak State College, which will generate a PPSC student “S” Number and Password. Write down your “S” number and password.

Take the Next Generation Accuplacer college entrance exam at the PPSC Testing Center – Free Next Gen Accuplacer prep materials and sample questions are available on the College Pathways homepage at the College Advising/Planning tab.
