Answer #1

Yes indeed you can go to college at just about any age. Ever hear of kids as young as 12 attend college because they are extremely brilliant? Yep, it is true.

Answer #2

Yeah, sure. Age isn’t the only basis of qualifying in a college. As long as you have the passion for the course you’re about to take up, it would work out fine.

Answer #3

Yeah thats what I was going to do but my school district consuler told me I should not because it’s a big step compared to high school and she told me to take that year off to travel and work etc. I suggest you do that instaed of rushing into school

Answer #4

I graduated at 16, started college when I turned 17… My parents live in Africa, so I was living here alone… It really isnt that big a deal…

Answer #5

yeah you might be, my cousin was 17 when she went to college, I dont think age matters, I think its just if you graduated high school or not
