Dual enrollment in Ohio
College credit earned while still in high school. It is the single largest lever on a college bill, and what it costs your family depends almost entirely on which state you are in.
The state covers dual-enrolment tuition, so college credit earned in high school costs your family little or nothing.
College Credit Plus (CCP)
Free
At an Ohio PUBLIC college the student pays nothing at all: ORC 3365.07(A)(3) bars charging the participant for tuition, textbooks or any other fee, with the Department of Education and Workforce paying the college and the student's own secondary school paying for textbooks. The zero-cost guarantee is scoped to public colleges — a public-school participant attending a PRIVATE or eligible out-of-state college may be charged under a school/college agreement, capped at the difference between the statutory 'maximum per participant charge amount' and the 'default floor amount', and capped in total at $125 (course taught at the high school by college faculty) or $100 (taught at the high school by a credentialed high school teacher). Economically disadvantaged participants, and low-income nonpublic-school participants on an EdChoice/Cleveland scholarship, may not be charged at all.
Who can enroll. Under ORC 3365.02 and 3365.03 (as amended by SB 104, effective February 25, 2025) participation is open to Ohio-resident students in their ninth, tenth, eleventh or twelfth grade year at a public, nonpublic or nonchartered nonpublic secondary school, and to home-educated students of equivalent grade level; courses must be nonsectarian and nonremedial and the student must meet the chancellor's college-ready/remediation-free eligibility criteria. All public secondary schools and ALL Ohio public colleges (14 universities plus branch campuses and 23 community colleges) are required to participate; nonpublic secondary schools and private colleges participate only if they choose to.
