| Why should students enroll in Learn & Earn Online? |
|
 |
It's free. All courses are tuition-free with no academic fees of any kind. |
|
|
Students can earn two years of transferable college credits or a two-year associate degree while simultaneously earning a high school diploma. |
|
|
It's convenient. Learn & Earn students take their RCCC courses online and never have to travel to campus. They can complete their RCCC coursework wherever they have computer and Internet access. |
|
|
Students who earn two years of college credit can avoid taking the SAT and ACT exams. When Learn & Earn students transfer to a four-year college, they will enter those institutions as "advanced freshmen" and can quickly move to junior or second-semester sophomore status. |
|
|
Learn & Earn Online can improve a student's chances of attending the four-year college or university of his/her choice. Learn & Earn students are considered "transfer" students, meaning they do not compete with traditional students for freshman admission. |
|
|
The Learn & Earn Online program adds variety, rigor and an enhanced academic challenge for students. Learn & Earn students can gain up to five quality points for every online college course they complete. This will raise their high school grade-point average and class ranking. |
|
|
Learn & Earn Online makes college much more affordable for all students and families. Students can earn the first-two years of college credit tuition free, cutting the cost of a four-year degree in half. At the same time, students who do well in their Learn & Earn Online courses enhance their ability to secure scholarships for their third and fourth years of college. |
