[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 11th grader will only need 1 math credit and 1 English credit next year to graduate. He’s not a grinder and is not really interested in taking a bunch of extra classes if he doesn’t need to. He’s college bound but not targeting top 50 schools. Including 12th grade he will likely have 6 APs. I’ve heard that you can do a half day of courses and a half day internship. Is that true and if so, is it up to the student to find the internship or is there some kind of program to enroll in? Also, any thoughts on how this would look on college apps (especially in the interest is related to what he might want to a study in college)? Thanks![/quote] Your son could also just do his senior year full time at MC. He would have to take English and math, but those credits would be transferrable to most public universities. Then he could take one or two other courses each semester- either worthy of satisfying university gen eds or to explore career interests.[/quote]
