There’s a possibility that you may possibly go to both high teach and college at the same time. But, it is often hard to juggle both. There is a National program called “Running Start”. It is where exceptional high teach students are permitted to take college coursework with qualifying for admission to the program. There is a GPA requirement as well as consent from your mother(s) your high teach and letters of recommendation. See if there are colleges in your area who participate.

Try out the attached link for information specific to Portland Community College.

As for paying for your tuition. They have a program where they only charge you a $ 35 dollar fee instead of the per credit tuition charge. Specific restrictions apply. Refer to the attached link:

Talk to your parents in this area your desire to start college early. If they say that it’s okay, talk to your high teach counselor in this area the possibility of getting dual credit for both high teach and college.
