For those with a bachelor's or another post-secondary degree already in hand, taking a single graduate-level course is a great way to decide if that CCAPS graduate program is right for you.
Completing one of these courses can also support your application to a CCAPS graduate degree or certificate. If admitted, you may have up to 3 nondegree credits apply towards a CCAPS graduate certificate or up to 10 nondegree credits apply towards a CCAPS graduate degree program, if you earn a B- or better.
