can you start taking college courses before you turn 18?
Question by andiadorehimx3: can you start taking college courses before you turn 18?
i’m 17, and i’m looking at colleges/tech schools for dental hygienist. i have my ged, which is accepted, but i don’t know if colleges/tech schools will accept you if you’re still underage. i don’t see why they wouldn’t, but i’ve heard otherwise.

Friend the teach to be sure, but I’ve heard of many students who were not 18 when they started college (some turned 18 within the first year).

i dont reckon age matters. it just depends if you pass high teach. each college has their own requirements, but most dont care if you are underage. if you are really smart and skip some high teach, they will still accept you.
Most tech schools will let you take classes early… you need to just call the registrar’s personnel for the schools in your area. It is often excellent to get the common (required) classes out of the way at a tech teach which has a reciprocal agreement with the college you want to attend.
Tech schools are generally cheaper, and the classes are often cheaper.
Well it really depends on your grades and paperwork!!!If you have fantastic grades then i dought it!!!
There are probably colleges that have obtuse rules, just like there are in any other field. But most colleges do not confine you based on age.
There may be special restrictions on dental hygienist course, if you are dealing with patients, but I can’t imagine any reason to confine you from sitting in a classroom.
