What Students Are Saying
Clark State is 85.50 per quarter credit hour. It is really great since our classes will transfer to other universities. You're paying 3 times less for your classes versus a traditional university.
Amanda from Beavercreek, OH
Several of the professors here work very hard to make sure that credits from Clark State will transfer to most major Ohio universities. So instead of paying for a years worth of credits at a four year semester institution for general classes, a student can pay one third of the cost and earn twice as many credits on this schools quarter pace.
Jennifer from Springfield, OH
If your just looking for certification, a 2 year degree, or plan to go on to a 4 year college. The variety of learning opportunities at Clark State will give you much more than the cost would ever lead you to expect. A truky great learning experience without having to mortgage your next 20 years of earnings.
