Youngstown State University provides open access to high-quality education through a broad range of affordable certificate, associate, baccalaureate, and graduate programs.

Early College High Schools are small schools where students can earn both a high school diploma and two years of college credit towards a bachelor's degree. They are places for learning, designed to help young people progress toward the education and experience they need to succeed in life and family-supporting careers.

These early entrance programs take entire groups of students who have yet to complete high school and place them in a supportive peer environment within a collegiate setting.

Jobs for the future seeks to accelerate the educational and economic advancement of youth and adults struggling in our economy.

The mission of the Youngstown City Schools, a district determined to be a beacon of hope and encouragement, is to develop caring, lifelong learners with vision, who are well prepared and productive citizens, by respecting individuality and utilizing ALL resources available.
