High School Options

Submitted by Shay on March 5, 2008 - 14:20.

Check your local listings, but some places you can take a lot more than 12 hours of college classes by the time you finish high school. Also, if you're a senior and have wrapped up all your high school graduation requirements, you can consider taking a class or two at a local community college. I did several of these, and entered my freshman year with over 50 hours of college credit.

Taking community college classes that'll transfer to your school of choice is also a great way to save some money - the classes are usually cheaper, and you might have the option to live at home during that time.
