Going to College Before You Go to College

Good article here from Brian O'Connor about how to lower your college costs by getting college credit before you get to college. This is a topic that I discuss in my book, and it's good to see articles promoting the same ideas. I also like this bit of advice, that students and parents often don't consider:

"[There should be] no waffling around about a major, [such as] starting with art history, going to pre-med for a month, and then switching to accounting. Students need to pick a direction and stick with it [in order to graduate as quickly as possible, with the lowest costs]."
