[quote=Anonymous]For my kid, the main benefit was the schedule in 11th and 12th grade. They were over the hustle of 45 minute classes, which felt like a lot of wasted time. The pace for content was too slow. The college schedule meant sleeping later (9 am classes) and getting home earlier. They preferred the longer classes 2 or 3 times per week, and liked having only 4 classes, but going at a faster pace. College application process was as a freshman (because you don’t have HS diploma yet). Almost all course credits transferred (except the writing which was embedded in the new program, and a random introductory class.) Kid is taking a mix of freshman, sophomore and junior level courses as a freshman in college this year - exploring a couple of pathways. The goal wasn’t early graduation from college, but rather more time for co-ops, minors, and possibly double major/masters.[/quote]
