CCA 4 Year Planning
When you want to start creating a plan,
remember…


Include all courses required to graduate and for college
eligibility.
Be challenged but not overwhelmed.

There is no universal plan. It should be unique to you and
your goals. You can research various colleges and careers
using Naviance and the college websites to find out exactly
what is required and recommended for admission.

The plan should be considered tentative and can be revised
at any time.
