I would have loved for my son, a rising senior, to have done this, but the kids are locked down on campus, which was unacceptable to my son. So he’s taking four courses this summer and just paying, although he does get a partial dual-enrollment scholarship. We’re local, so he just drives to school. I’ve got to give baby boy credit for having an almost perfect score in both of his current classes, one of which is known for not having many A’s (30 years ago when I took it there were three out of a class of 50).

I think it’s great for kids to earn a good number of college credits before actually starting. It just gives them a head start.
