College Credit Opportunities with PHSC at CCHS

At Cypress Creek High School, we offer Dual Enrollment (DE) through Pasco-Hernando State College, giving students the opportunity to earn college credits while completing their high school diploma. This program empowers motivated students to get a head start on their postsecondary goals by taking rigorous, college‑level courses. By participating, students save time and money, build confidence in their academic abilities, and experience the expectations of college coursework in a supportive environment. Dual Enrollment at CCHS opens doors, expands options, and helps students graduate better prepared for the future.

PHSC Testing Services will administer virtual proctoring of common placement tests.  Students may schedule an exam at https://testing.phsc.edu/schedule-exam/exam. Click here for FAQs.

PHSC has virtual drop-in advising available.  As your dual enrollment students are registering for classes if they have questions or difficulties it would be most efficient if they used the virtual advising system.  If the advisor working with the student’s needs they can always reach out to the academic advisor assigned to the student’s high school.

Students will access the system from a link at the top of the PHSC home page.  Please see below: “Virtual Drop-In Advising Appointment”.  The student will see this PHSC Virtual Walk-In Advising Slide once they’ve logged in using the Zoom link (on the right-hand side of the page they are taken to).

Classes can only be added up until the first class meets and must be dropped only during the period listed on the PHSC website.  Adding and dropping courses, other than courses taken at the high school, is done through BANNER.
