Students interested in transferring to another college are encouraged to check with their admissions department to get written confirmation of their acceptance of CCV credits. No college is required to accept another college’s credits, so it is best in all circumstances to check if credits will be accepted.

Being a young adult is an exciting time. Parenting never stops, it just changes over time. Parents can support their children through the college experience by being a good listener and spending quantity time with them. We value family life and we value parents that speak into their children’s lives. At CCV our shared values build stronger families.
At Cornerstone, I am able to take courses at cheaper tuition rates than other colleges. Plus, the professors are very friendly and every class feels personal.
