Costs and Discount

Students participating in Closing the Gap receive a large discount for four transferrable college credits: one (1) for the Fall semester and three (3) for the Spring semester. The cost is $75 per credit ($300 total). These credits would typically cost a little less than $1000 per credit.

Payment and Scholarships

Payment is due prior to the first class date.  We will provide payment requirements and other information after we receive a completed application.

We will make every effort to accommodate scholarship requests. Thanks to the generous gifts of donors and Geneva College, this program offers college credit at a reduced rate to students that may not otherwise participate in an early college dual enrollment program.
