I am currently a sophomore (rising junior) and have just recently heard about these Early College Entrance Programs. The programs that I was introduced to were Bard College at Simon’s Rock and Missouri Academy of Science, Mathematics, and Computing (MASMC). As I said, I’ve only recently heard about these programs and therefore am somewhat distant about these programs (or schools). Does anyone have firsthand experience or is familiar with these programs?
We are intrigued by them- but haven’t explored to deep. I also know WPI and BU offer.
This page has a lot of info.

My son is in a program called “Dual Enrollment”. This program allows you to take a college courses and receive high school and college credit. If you switch to a home schooler, your dual enrollment becomes your full time study. Some schools limit the number of courses you can take a semester.
In the Boston area, the schools I have researched that you can attend is any of the community colleges, UMass, Harvard Ext, and BU.
As vegas1 stated WPI has it and I think Clark University.
Does anyone know any others in the Boston area?
