Element: numbered cklist
1. Set Up Your Kent State Account
Your Kent State account gives you access to the university systems and services you'll use as a CCP student.
Follow the instructions you receive after admission to establish your account and log in to FlashLine, Kent State's student portal.
You'll use FlashLine to access important student information and services throughout your time at Kent State.

2. Start Checking Your Kent State Email
Once you're admitted, Kent State will begin sending important CCP information to your Kent State email account.
Check it regularly for information about orientation, advising, registration and other steps you'll need to complete before classes begin.
Tip: Continue checking the personal email address you used on your CCP application as you complete the admission process, too.
3. Complete CCP Orientation
Your online orientation is offered through Canvas, Kent State’s online learning platform used for courses, assignments and other academic activities.
Here’s what to watch for:
First, you’ll receive your congratulatory welcome email with instructions to logging into FlashLine.
One day later, you will receive your orientation email and instructions.
Tip: You cannot access orientation until you’ve logged into FlashLine.
4. Meet With Your Academic Advisor
College Credit Plus students are required to meet with a Kent State academic advisor before scheduling courses.
During your appointment, you and your advisor will discuss your academic goals and choose courses that fit your needs. Your courses must also fit your middle or high school schedule and be approved by your school counselor.
