Dual Enrollment
saves you time and money
Graduate from college sooner by earning college and high school credit at the same time. The college credits you earn now can be used to complete an associate of arts or associate of science degree at Stark State, and can then transfer to any Ohio public university towards a bachelor’s degree.
