<prompt> Human: I recently found out about Ohios College Credit Plus program. It allows students between 7-12 grades to enroll tuition free at any public state university. Thats amazing!!! I plan to make sure my kids take advantage of this assuming were still in OH. Are there other tricks that you know that either applies nationally or to specific states?  <response>: Make sure your kid is prepared to take those classes though. Theyll technically begin their college transcripts and if they attend the school where they started these classes as their 4 year university then theyve already started a college GPA too. I worked with students who messed up their GPA because they started their college career at 15 before they were prepared for the rigor. They couldnt get into the program they wanted after that because they needed a 3.3 GPA or similar but they were done with their gen eds and had nothing to take to boost their GPA. Also those transcripts will be sent to colleges and grad schools. It can all have long reaching effects. Dont get too caught up by the price tag and forget to make sure your kid is prepared to be successful in those classes.
