College Credit Plus

Ohio’s College Credit Plus program (formerly PSEO) is a popular choice for students and for good reason. This program allows students to earn college credits while in high school, all for free. Students can enroll in courses at Firelands High School or most public colleges (approved by FHS) including LCCC and receive dual credit for high school requirements and for college credit. These credits may be used at LCCC or for transfer to the college or university of choice after high school graduation. This state-funded program covers tuition, books and fees.

There will be a College Credit Plus parent meetings held (typically) in January. Please speak with the FHS counselors for additional information.
