In the United States, a typical high school graduate is usually 17 or 18 years old. In some instances, a student may complete their education early. They may have chosen to leave to school to earn a GED. They might have doubled their course load in order to finish requirements in three years instead of four.
Sometimes, a student takes a class because it is in an interesting area . A student might want to learn more about public speaking criminal investigation. A specific college course can be exactly what the student needs to inform their interests or hobbies.
High schools students who are thinking ahead may see their years in university shortened if they can earn college credit online. Something as simple as taking one online course per semester beginning during the sophomore year is equal to about one semester’s worth of university learning. This may be particularly attractive to students who plan on lengthy fields of study, like law or medicine.
Some of these types of courses offer a certification that can be purchased once the class is complete. Though the certification is unlikely to carry enough weight with it to lead to college credit, it can be a bonus when applying for jobs, to universities or for scholarships.
