  2. Tonight’s information is subject to change College Credit Plus Recommendations have been released by the Ohio Board of Regents These recommendations are under consideration by the state Legislature We are describing the PSEO program as it exists today.

  3. What is PSEO? • Post Secondary Enrollment Options (PSEO) is an opportunity for qualified high school students to take college classes before graduation • There are two options: • Option A – the student receives college credit and the family pays all costs • Option B – the student receives both high school and college credit, and the school district pays tuition and books

  4. Why Would I do Option A? Option A is the only option available during the summer Option A students may not want to have college classes on the high school transcript

  5. What Does Option B Cover? • Option B students will have costs paid by the school district. This includes: • Tuition • Books (student may be required to return at the end of the term) • Fees • Option B does not include: • Optional Fees (parking, gym membership) • Transportation

  6. What are the benefits of PSEO? Free college credit Opportunity to enroll in classes not available at high school Exposure to college faculty/ college expectations College credit may transfer easily (especially between public institutions within Ohio)

  7. What Are the Risks of PSEO? • College coursework is more rigorous than high school • Pace is much faster – students will cover the same content as a year-long AP class in a 15 week semester • College Faculty expect more work to be done outside of the classroom • Financial Risk • PSEOP legislation states the school districts may require families to re-pay the cost of tuition and books for students who fail or withdraw

  8. What Are the Risks of PSEO? • Participation in college classes may take time away from other activities • Student may need to limit involvement in sports and other extra-curricular activities or jobs • Transportation is not provided • Students taking classes on a college campus need to factor in time needed to drive to campus, find parking, etc. • Course credit may not transfer to private or out-of-state colleges

  9. Who can participate in PSEO? • Students must be in grades 9 – 12 • Students must have an open period in the school day (not counting lunch) • 1 HS Carnegie Unit (year long course) = 5 semester hours • A student with one open period may take 5 semester hours during the entire school year • Students must file letter of intent with HS counselor by March 30 • Students must meet the admission criteria set by the college

  10. Who Should Participate in PSEO? Students who are motivated and mature Students who are strong students Students who have interests beyond what is available in the high school Students who have the time to devote to college classes
