Hi. I am thinking about having my middle school student apply to IMSA next Spring. It looks like you have to apply before 9th grade. He takes algebra in 7th grade and I am curious how people met the high school science requirement. Did you find an online course or take summer school at the nearby high school?
Thank you in advance for the guidance.
Students can apply as an 8th grader or as 9th grader. If accepted as an 8th grader, the first year at IMSA is as a 10th grader (sophomore).
My daughter applied as a 9th grader and her freshman bio class fulfilled the science requirement. (Still waiting to hear admission decision) Sorry, I do not know about science courses for 8th graders. Might want to see what the local community college offers
