According to the description of this program: "Students in this program take classes and make preparations for completing a high school diploma and transferring to university at the same time. "
Therefore, This interruption causes me to obtain a high school diploma or equivalency earlier than my peers. This program also allows me to begin the college-level studies early.
In this program, there are several ways to obtain a high school diploma or high school equivalency. I chose to earn the high school equivalency diploma by taking GED test. I obtained my GED Certificate on May 5th, 2016.
