And after your first semester*, it’s good to know that Stark State has the lowest tuition around AND you’ll still be eligible for scholarships and financial aid as you continue on for a certificate or degree. You’ll get the same high-quality education, but you’ll have less chance of graduating with debt hanging over your head (check out starkstate.edu/tuitioncomparison).

Plus, it’s easy to transfer SSC’s super-affordable education to a bachelor’s degree program, thanks to our agreements with universities such as Ohio State, Kent State, The University of Akron and many more.

Or, you could learn the skills to jump right into a good-paying, in-demand job.

Along with thousands of dollars in savings at Stark State, you’ll find on campus and online experienced professors who care about seeing you succeed, small class sizes, flexible scheduling and experts ready to help you find the right career fit.

* SSC picks up the remainder of the tuition (instructional and general fee) after all federal, state and institutional grants, awards and scholarship dollars are applied. All applicable fees are the responsibility of the student. These fees include but are not limited to course fees, processing fee, maintenance and campus security fee, distance learning fee, academic program fees, etc.
