In collaboration with Lake Erie College (LEC) in Painesville, Ohio, AOA has established the LEC@AOA program to offer select LEC courses on the AOA campus for eligible students. LEC is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and is fully authorized by the state of Ohio to offer select degrees and programs. Credits earned through this opportunity may be eligible for transfer to any college or university in the United States as determined by the respective institution. LEC@AOA courses are specifically designed for academically ambitious post-high school pre-college students (“Postgraduate” students); therefore, students must apply for and be accepted into the program.
