VillageSoup advances Early College open house for home-schoolers at Hutchinson Center
VillageSoup advanced a University of Maine Early College open house for home-schoolers at the UMaine Hutchinson Center on Dec. 11. Sessions will be held at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. “Home-schooled students can greatly benefit academically and financially by enrolling in early college courses at the University of Maine,” said Allison Small, UMaine Early College programs coordinator. “The programs enable eligible students to earn college credits while in high school and enjoy significant cost savings by reducing future student loan debt.” The University of Maine System partners with the Maine Department of Education to waive tuition for qualified high school students to cover full tuition for up to 12 college credits per year, with more than 70 courses offered online and in person, the article states.
