Wayne College hosting info night for students in grades 7-12

The University of Akron Wayne College will host a College Credit Plus Information Night for students entering grades 7-12 and their parents to learn how to earn both college and high school credits at the same time for free. Taking place in the Student Life Building, the event is scheduled for Monday, Feb. 28 at 6 p.m.

The purpose of CCP is to provide students grades 7-12 the opportunity to reduce their higher education costs by earning college credit in high school. Classes including books are offered free of charge for qualifying students. Not only does CCP offer a savings to the students, but it also gives them the opportunity to get a taste for college classes and take courses that might not be offered in their high schools.

Located at 1901 Smucker Road in Orrville, the CCP Information Night will include a presentation reviewing admissions requirements, a campus tour and the opportunity to hear from current CCP students. To RSVP, visit wayne.uakron.edu.
