RS Info. Night

Attend a Virtual Running Start Information Night to learn more about the Running Start program at Clark College!  
 

About this event: These optional information sessions are for students and their supporters who want to know more about beginning the Running Start program in the 2025-2026 school year. Attendees will learn about eligibility, cost, enrollment steps, placement options, tips for academic planning, transferring after Running Start, and Clark student life and student support resources. During the webinar, attendees will be able to ask any questions they may have about Running Start, and we will also hear from a current Clark College student about their experience!   

What is Running Start? The Running Start program allows high school juniors and seniors to earn college credits while completing their high school education—saving students money while advancing their education. Students are able to attend college, at minimal cost, while still living at home as a high school student.
