What is College Credit Plus?
College Credit Plus is Ohio’s dual enrollment program that provides students in grades 7-12 the opportunity to earn college and high school credits at the same time by taking courses from Ohio colleges or universities. The purpose of this program is to enhance students’ career readiness and postsecondary success, while providing a wide variety of options to college-ready students, at no or limited costs to students and families.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND: If you withdraw from a class past the date to withdraw OR fail the course---you are responsible for payment to Union Local for that course.
