CAP - Community for Academic Progress
The Community for Academic Progress (CAP) Program is an exciting program designed to allow students to enroll in grouped or paired courses that share common themes, activities, and assignments. Since the courses are linked, students take these classes as a group, allowing faculty and students to work and learn together. Whether you are transitioning from high school or are a continuing college student, CAP has a learning community for you! While college may seem overwhelming, CAP addresses your needs in an environment of caring faculty, staff, and administrators. In addition to learning communities, CAP offers math courses that are only open to CAP students, which means everyone in a math CAP class is part of the CAP program.
The CAP Program Offers:
- An academic program that combines courses in one convenient schedule.
- "Priority" registration so that registering for college is not difficult.
- A personal orientation to introduce you to the program and to the college.
- Counselors who assist with your Student Educational Plan (SEP) and provide personal counseling and career development.
- Access to technology both in and out of the classroom.
- Coordinated sessions with Supplemental Instructional (SI) Leaders who will provide study sessions and demonstrate effective learning and study strategies*.
- Field trip opportunities to CSUs, UCs, and private universities that give glimpses of university life.
