Advice? LAC vs money from not super pooper?

[milgymfam]

@LeastComplicated Haverford will accept up to four college credits earned in high school. They are strictly elective, but they could cut out a semester of work (standard course load is four classes per semester at Haverford). The senior thesis is done across the fall and spring semesters of senior year so I’m not sure many people graduate early. My daughter plans to use her four class ‘buffer’ to take a lighter three class load 3 separate times- one for study abroad, and twice to start a new intensive language course (year long). So, you are right that having many AP/DE courses wouldn’t really save money at Haverford. They also wouldn’t necessarily skip someone out of prereqs and into higher level courses- all students take a full array of placement exams irregardless of their previous coursework.
