Mission Statement: 

OCEAN is Oberlin College’s concurrent enrollment program. Oberlin College and participating high schools work together to enroll qualified secondary school students in Oberlin College equivalent courses. Modeled upon classes taught at Oberlin College, OCEAN coures are supervised by Oberlin College faculty members and taught by carefully selected and trained high school teachers. OCEAN courses are kept to the same rigorous standards as the rest of Oberlin College’s curriculum.

Oberlin College's Role:   

Through OCEAN, Oberlin College supports the high educational aspirations of secondary school students and teachers throughout our region. OCEAN courses provide students with the opportunity for an exciting, high quality collegiate experience while in high school.
