Sounds like a few of you responding on this thread know each other. An interesting accounting twitch is that in Washington State (and a few others), a child can obtain his associate's degree tuition-free if he is enrolled in a public high school. The state says it is less expensive in the long run. Huh? My homeschooled son was one of the many homeschoolers to take advantage of that. Enroll in public high school, never set foot in it except to grab a transcript for a four-year college, and graduate from high school and junior college at the same time. Not a bad deal...
Not bad at all. Clever.
Of course it's less expensive than public school, CC credits usually cost somewhere around $70. It was $50 for me... I got two years of my college education for 3k, and it all transferred to my four-year school.
