Without going into details, the reason I’m going to college a year early is because of family circumstances that would make my senior year very difficult to complete. I was accepted at a place that takes people straight out of eleventh grade w/out a HS diploma. I could do my senior year concurrently enrolled, but I would receive virtually no federal aid which would make it impossible to do…basically, it’s already a done deal that I’ll just get my GED and go the university a year ahead (it probably would have been my first choice anyway), I’m just wondering what problems or disadvantages could come up down the road because of this…
