Owens is proud to partner with the University of Cincinnati to bring the Early IT program to Northwest Ohio.
By participating in the Early IT program, students may earn one year of college credit by completing Early IT courses at a partnering high school or career center.
Transition to College Success
Students at participating high schools and career centers may complete one year of a CIS degree program in high school. They will gain direct admission to Owens and the University of Cincinnati upon graduation.
Upon completing the program, students can transfer to Owens to complete their associate degree, and then transfer to the University of Cincinnati and remain at Owens to complete their bachelor’s and master’s degree in IT.
