The Ohio State Academy Program is an opportunity for high school students to enroll in Ohio State classes through College Credit Plus. This program is a partnership between Ohio State, the high school, the student, and his or her parents.
There are two options for enrolling in the Academy Program. Both options are available autumn and spring semesters at the Wooster campus (ATI).
Option A – Students enroll in courses to receive college credit, and the students’ family is responsible for all costs.
Option B – Students enroll in courses to receive both college credit and high school credit, and the local school district is responsible for the cost of tuition and books.
