Graduate with Associates ? Or .. Help!!

Pre-College Issues High School Life
1

<p>This upcoming fall i will be a senior in high school but im indecisive about staying. My current school offers a college prep program where i take college classes to achieve an associates degree which is a great program. The thing is , thats all my school offers, no sports, extra curricular activities , and minimal guidance, and im tired of seeing the same faces everyday (lol). Keep in mind this will be my Last year of high School</p>

<p>The charter school i would like to attend has much more to offer. They are big on helping theyre students get in to great colleges, has many more activities, and will shape my character skills and guide me on my road to college. It would be a new experience for me.... The only thing is that they dont contain the early college program for an associates degree.So all the college classes that i took, It will just look good on my transcript</p>

<p>Should i stay at my current high school and work hard to get an associates degree and deal with my boring school ?</p>

<p>Or should i transfer to the charter school where i would engage in more activites, meet new ppl, better college preparation, and build a character and power to lead through my college journey.</p>

<p>Any advice ? Thanks</p>

<p>You sound like you’ve set your mind on the charter school… </p>

<p>In my opinion, stick with your current school. You’re literally getting a degree before you’re done with high school. What more could you want?? And you’re a senior, if you switch to the charter school, it doesn’t even matter much since most of your college apps go out before the end of first semester and the colleges will only see what you did at your first school. You can do the whole meet new people, new activities, and character building thing when you get to college. You can wait a year. Good luck!</p>

<p>Don’t get your associates. My guidance counselor said it’ll make you a transfer student which makes it harder to get into college.</p>

<p>@twentythirteen i hear it.
Im undecided as of now , i feel as if school should go beyond academics</p>

<p>@rachel an undergraduate friend of mine told me that also. I wonder if this is true</p>

<p>Your best bet is to call colleges and ask them what their policy is towards students that have associates degrees by the time they graduate high school. That way you’ll know exactly instead of assuming their response :)</p>
