Ohio University program puts accelerated courses online for students whose schools don't offer them - Athens Messenger
Grant funding and an interest in helping Appalachian Ohio high schoolers succeed has led to the expansion of an Ohio University program that makes advanced-placement courses available online to students whose high schools don’t offer them, the university announced Monday. Advanced-placement courses and exams provide high school students the opportunity to earn credit or advanced standing at colleges and universities. The $25,354 grant, funded by the Ohio Department of Education and the Ohio Appalachian Center for Higher Education, will help offset the cost of tuition, textbooks and the advanced-placement exam fee for more than 30 Appalachian Ohio high school students from area schools, OU said in a news release. It also will cover technical support, which Ohio University graduate students will provide.
