Think Outside the High School Box

For high school students who are doing well academically but would not mind a challenge, consider taking general education college classes at your local community college or with an accredited online institution. The benefits are two-fold. First, you get exposed early to what college will be like. Second, you will earn credit that can be applied when you really do start college.

When I look back, I often credit taking college classes early as the main reason I was able to experience as much academic success in college as I did. The commitment is a big one, but if you want to get ahead go for it!

Cordially,
Chrystal
