Early Admit Students

Take College Classes Before You Graduate From High School

If you’re in grades 9-12, you can complete college credit classes at Owens Community College while still attending high school. As an early admit student, you’ll take your courses at Owens in addition to your regular high school classes. You can enroll in any course as long as you meet the prerequisite requirements.

Early Admit vs. College Credit Plus (CCP)

Both programs give students in grades 7-12 the opportunity to take college courses and earn college credit while still in high school. The key difference is how the courses are funded.

College Credit Plus students can earn their credits at no cost through a state-funded program. Early Admit students are responsible for covering their own educational expenses.

How To Qualify for Early Admit

To be eligible for the Early Admit option, you must:

  • Have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher on your high school transcript.
  • Meet the College Level Read Placement requirements by your ACT, SAT or Accuplacer scores.
  • Meet with your Early Admit Advisor to schedule classes and complete orientation.

Early admit students are NOT eligible for financial aid. You’ll be responsible for the full cost of tuition, fees, books and supplies.

How To Apply and Register for Classes

After you apply, log in to your Ozone account and explore all the options and resources. If you have trouble logging in, contact the Help Desk—be sure to have your Social Security number handy for confirmation.

Ask your parent or guardian to fill out the Early Admit Parent Signature Form (PDF). Mail the signed form to:

Owens Community College/Records Office
30335 Oregon Road
Perrysburg, OH 43551

If you’ve taken the ACT or SAT, your advisor will let you know if your scores make you eligible to waive the placement test.

If you have not taken the ACT/SAT or your scores didn’t meet the threshold, you can complete the ACCUPLACER Placement Test at the Owens Testing Center. If you have questions, email the Testing Center or call (567) 661-8378.

Now you’re ready to register! Schedule an appointment with the Advising Office at the campus you plan to attend:

If you meet with your advisor by phone, you must be at a computer during your scheduled appointment time.

Courses are open to all eligible students on a first-come, first-served basis. As an early admit student, you cannot register for classes on your own. Be sure to meet with your advisor as soon as you can!
