In fact, it was my parents who were consistently pushing me to get into Running Start to get associate degree as early as possible and transfer to UWashington. After long resistance, I finally researched what's being offered at CC and was fascinated with options -- though I'm still not doing AA.</p>
<p>I would be optimistic about paying of your tuition, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_Start%5B/url%5D">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Running_Start</a> says that the only university participating is EWU while here we see WSU as well. I can't see why district would pay that three thousands of bucks to CC but not to some other university. Maybe you will only be required to add the cost ;-)</p>

Also, be aware that you may "outgrow" the community college.

As a tool for procrastination, I've planned and replanned my schedule and found that everything matches two years:)</p>
<p>To participate in Running Start at WSU students have to attain AI(SAT+GPA) high enough to qualify for addmission to the Uni. The number not too big though. :-)</p>
