Was it Benjamin Franklin who said, "The early bird gets the worm"? I didn't actually have an appreciation for that idea until one of my sons graduated from college at the age of nineteen, and went directly into a soft job with a Fortune 500 corporation-- all because the president of the institution was intrigued by all he'd accomplished during his adolescent years!
Each of my sons has started earning college credits once
they were in their mid-teens. By perusal simply a little deeper, and doing a little planning, they were able to enter college with quite a few credits already under their belts. But why did we want to do it? How did we convert our teens that it was a nice idea?
Teens who stop college early have an automatic head start on life. I found that the challenge of earning credits and the goal of early graduation motivates and focuses a busy adolescent in a way I would-be ne'er
have imagined. Suddenly, schoolwork has real meaning, and there is a tangible reward for the time they spend. Earning college credits gives them immediate feedback on the quality of their learning. It shows they are actuated and willing to challenge themselves, and that's a terrific way to earn the respect of peers, mentors, and yes... the college admissions department.
I've been fascinated by the idea of early college ever since I detected
of the Swann family, whose 10 children attained
bachelor's degrees at age 15 and master's degrees at age 16, all from the comfort of home. Compare that with the average 16-year-old who is looking at six more years of school simply to stop a bachelor's degree! And that's not even as mentioning the fact that earning college credits severally
can save you thousands of dollars!
I didn't necessarily want the boys to earn their entire degree at home, but I could see that there were immense advantages to acquiring a jump start on the future. College credits add tremendous credibleness to a homeschool transcript. They show academic ability, motivation, maturity, and so more more. I knew my boys were academically up to college-level work, but they decidedly weren't available to be immersed full-time into the college scene. Earning credits severally
allowed us to keep homeschooling as long as we wanted to, piece still meeting their academic needs.
Teens who earn college credits during the high school years are way ahead of the game. They have options! - They have more room in their schedules for upper-level classes (the actually absorbing ones).
- They can take a lighter course load in order to leave time for another pursuits such as travel, hobbies, volunteering.
- They can stop college in two or three years, rather than the customary four or more.
- They have time to start a business and do it profitable before they need to keep a family.
- They're even as available to take on the corporate earth if that's what they want to do!
It was decidedly Benjamin Franklin who aforesaid "Dost thousand love life? Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life is ready-made of." The high school years are short and precious. You can do the most of them by portion your adolescent get a head start on life. You can give your adolescent a head start on life! Get a Jump Start on College! wish show you how...
