I believe the courses are $25 & if you’re happy with your grade, another $400 will give you college credit.

Are these considered dual enrollment?

Study Hall isn’t any kind of enrollment unless you pay for the college credit afterwards and/or arrange with your HS for credit. Dual enrollment means you are getting both HS and college credit. Study Hall gives neither without additional action. They are an excellent resource however, and $400 for the college credit is a steal if it’s useful to you. I have no idea if any HS’s would be open to considering giving HS credit for them, however. That isn’t really their purpose.

I’m the ASU person. I just don’t think an online program is going to get you what you want, particularly for the price. Here’s W&M https://precollegeonline.wm.edu/venture-capital

It’s functionally a course on entrepreneurship at like 4x the cost of ASU courses.

Now, UMD IIRC has in-person program.

I'm the one who posted above about the W&M online program. My kid liked it.

Go through this playlist in reverse order: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL71QplJWp1RoaKEMTo_9CZA-kyjwT5rGo&si=DYtVkmlc1X5Nexgt

They also have playlists on, e.g. Private Equity: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL71QplJWp1Rrm0dkWjjIY2cf4jTYSU0t2&si=oTZp7kY-9Z_xR1nX

This is a good playlist on Excel: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL90E1F26C7B85E78F&si=C6ROcZ-EgKq8ExtA

If she doesn't like the idea of getting paid to use Excel, finance may not be for her. It's a significant part of the job.

I'm sorry but $1600 is insanely expensive. As a comparison, this is what you can get for $1000: https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/courses/advanced-modeling-prep/venture-capital-master-program

OP, are you local? Georgetown has great 2-3 week summer programs in business. You can commute and save money.

Your child is a little young for these free programs but perhaps they might be of interest.

They are online certificate programs that explain certain business jobs.
