OAPSE members have access to many programs that save big money. Members are eligible for discounted mortgages and vacation packages. They can take advantage of great savings at Ohio amusement parks, water parks and zoos. And they can take advantage of excellent rates on credit cards and cell phone plans.
The members-only OAPSE Higher Education Program (HEP) is a benefit that allows OAPSE members and eligible family members to earn two years of college credit absolutely free through Eastern Gateway Community College (EGCC), one of the fastest growing, accredited Ohio colleges. You can earn an associate’s degree or take classes toward a bachelor’s degree.
Many of these courses are offered online, so you can work at your own pace.
All credits transfer to Ohio colleges.
In response to demand for additional courses, EGCC is offering new options for OAPSE members. They include:
Business Management Degree
And your family members – spouse, child, step-child, grandchild, step-grandchild, parent and any person for whom you are a legal guardian – are also eligible for the free college program. Active OAPSE retirees may also participate in HEP.
