College credit for military recruit
#4
Basically, your best bet is dual enrollment if your teen is under 19. You may want to provide more details by completing the addendum and template, in order to show an overall picture of the scenario.  Age, state, budget, commitments, study habits, etc are mentioned in the list of info asked for.  https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

UMPI requires the student to be a high school graduate, plus a year out, so they'll have to usually be at about 19-20.  If your teen isn't that age or graduated from high school yet, your best options are doing the dual enrollment at a community college such as Pierpont, accumulate the cheap or free credits.  I would do all the Coursera, TEEX, Sophia.org, etc, ACE/NCCRS credits that can go into a Bachelors later.  

You can have these on a Pierpont or community college transcript, as long as they take ACE/NCCRS credits. Then place these credits at either, COSC, Excelsior, TESU, etc, for completion of a Bachelors, or even wait for UMPI. You can ladder up to 90 ACE/NCCRS credits into a Bachelors, the rest can come from your community college dual enrollment or residency credits at the institutions you intend to graduate from.
