Current CAP Students for CCC Admission

If you are taking college classes in your high school through Clinton’s College Advancement Program (CAP) and are interested in applying for admission to CCC, you will need to fill out the New Student Application. This is similar to the application you filled out when you took your first CAP course. Follow the steps below. Note that you will need your Social Security Number to complete the application. 

  1. Go to the online application at https://application.clinton.edu/login.asp

  2. Choose Create An Account.

  3. Fill in your name and email address. Answer "No" to the question "Are you applying to take College Advancement Program (CAP) courses in your high school?" 

  4. Create a username and password. These should be different than the username and password you used when you submitted your CAP application. (Note: This is separate from your Student Portal login credentials; those will not change unless you reset your password.)

  5. After you enter the CAPTCHA verification code, click on Create an Account. This will take you to the Application Portal. 

  6. Click on the link on the left called "Application Information"

  7. Complete the Application Status, Demographics, Residency Status, Military Service, Home Address, and Education Information sections. 

  8.  Answer the seven Additional Questions, check the Acknowledgement statement, and hit Submit Application

  9. You should receive an email from an Admissions counselor within a week of submitting your application informing you of your next steps. If you have any questions about the status of your application, please call the Admissions Office at (518) 562-4170.
