Rising juniors and seniors and their parents are invited to learn more about getting ahead in college while still in high school at Middle College Parent Night.
The open house will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Monday, May 23, beginning in Roquemore Auditorium on the campus of Orangeburg-Calhoun Technical College. Following an overview of the Middle College program, students and parents are invited to explore Career Pathways, tour lab areas and watch demonstrations across campus.
OCtech’s Middle College allows ambitious high school students in Orangeburg and Calhoun counties the opportunity to earn college credits before they graduate. The college’s Career Pathways help students select courses relevant to their chosen field or interest, offering them a seamless transition from high school academics to degree programs at OCtech and beyond. Many courses are designed for transfer to four-year institutions and are accepted at all public – and most private – colleges and universities in South Carolina.
In addition to getting a jump start on a degree, Middle College helps students save thousands of dollars in tuition costs and take advantage of the small class sizes offered at OCtech. Courses are offered at many high schools and career centers, as well as on campus and online.
