>I just enrolled my daughter at one of the local colleges. Many states have programs now where high school students with a good GPA and a drivers license can attend college courses on the college campus and get both high school credits and credits toward a college degree. Works out great. Half of her classes are at the high school and the other half are on the college campus. Gives the student a peak at college level courses in advance of a full-time commitment. The high school pays for everything except the books. My daughter just enrolled, got her college id, parking permit, and student fee waiver for NOTHING. I only had to pay for the books. I've never seen college so cheap (well, we all know that the books are expensive)! A great opportunity. Now, if only she didn't have to pay for the parking pass at the highschool - it is $60.00/yr!

>Now, if only I could figure out a way for her to stay in highschool for 3 more years. I could get the 1st degree tuition free... :o)

Very interesting. So she's a rising high school senior? I like the idea of high schoolers getting a peak at college courses. My oldest starts college this fall so we've been doing the computer shopping, meal plan buying, dorm outfitting, course selection, tuition payment, and book buying. Thank goodness he's staying in $tate. But since he knows everything already, college seems redundant.
