In 2020, BNY Mellon announced a $20 million multi-year commitment in support of vital educational and workforce development programming. CCAC was one of two institutions selected to receive this targeted funding, which allowed the college to establish the BNY Mellon Early College Program.

The program is available to all schools and school districts in Allegheny County to help expand access to college and career readiness for those who may or may not have the resources to do so on their own.

The BNY Mellon Early College Program is for residents of Allegheny County in 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grade (or the home-school equivalent).

• 9th- and 10th-graders take non-credit courses and meet four to five times a semester.
• 11th- and 12th-graders take credit courses and follow a traditional college calendar.

Before beginning the program, students will receive information about the program’s goals, potential career paths, and what college is like.  Parents will also be informed about students’ commitments and the benchmarks they must achieve to complete the program.  Throughout their enrollment, students will have access to CCAC support services to ensure their successful completion.
