I briefly explain the four options for students to get college credit in high school. The first is to simply go to the college campus and sit in on a college course. This option is the most authentic for content and atmosphere. However, the timing of the course and the travel can greatly effect there high school schedule. The second option is to take a course online. This provides the greatest access to courses and the easiest to put in a student schedule. However, this option is also where student tend to get only 3 grades, A,B and F. The issue is being self motivated and being able to learn is this fashion on their own. I highly recommend that they have a content teacher as a tutor. The third option is AP testing offered by the College Board. This is the most rigorous of all college credit options and takes the most instructional time from your high school staff. The test is graded 1-5 with 3 being a passing score. The downside is that student get a one time test and all colleges treat AP scores a little different. The majority of students in AP don't take the test or get less than a 3. The core AP courses require a full year of instruction, some of the lesser AP can be done in a semester or two trimesters. The under used option is CLEP testing which allows for all of the common college requirements to be taken on a schedule that works for high school. High school honors classes can be easily designed to cover the CLEP requirements and the student sets up the test date and time. Any student can take CLEP if they have the knowledge and a retest is an option three months later. In short, are you close enough to a college to go their, a self motivated learner to go online, want to be challenged as much as possible and have a nationally standardized test to show, or finally just want to jump start yourself for college by taking as many requirements as you can in high school.
