在家接受教育的学生

为了帮助在家上学的家庭，ACE办公室开发了一套 家庭学校录取清单 按纪律，以24小时赚取大学学分政策为例 纽约州教育部高中同等文凭. Most of the courses on the 24 Credit Hour Academic Check List are held at GCC’s campus centers, 并为在家上学的学生提供公开注册课程. 请注意以下事项:

• 18岁以下的学生支付75美元的ACE费率.经批准的课程每学时收费25元.
• 学费余额为 通过奖学金基金支付; however withdrawing from any courses makes the student responsible for the 全日制杰西社区学院 学费收费.
• Courses fulfill high school equivalency 和 credit transfer requirements.
• 学生s must schedule the “Ability to Benefit” (ATB) exam before they can register to be certain they aren’t over or under challenged by the courses they take.
• College Prep courses (MAT 091, MAT 092, ENG 091, REA 091) can be taken by ATB placement. 这些课程将由奖学金支付, but do not count toward the 24 credit hours for the High Equivalency Diploma

The ACE program appreciates the contribution homeschooled students make to our college community. We aim to help homeschooled students transition into the public college environment from the onset of the application right through to graduation at GCC, 和 also enable the possible transfer to a four-year college for a bachelor’s or higher degree.

Q. 我的三个孩子从一年级开始在家上学, some of my 朋友 tell me that colleges don’t like to accept homeschooled students 和 others tell me it doesn’t matter. 你的意见是什么??

A: Most colleges 和 universities accept homeschooled students but they have their own policy as to how homeschool curriculum is evaluated. At GCC with our ACE program, we prefer to advise each homeschooled student individually. We evaluate their academic st和ing through the (ATB) Ability to Benefit placement test, 同样重要的是, we help students explore their career interests 和 enroll in courses best suited for their future.

Q. One of my 朋友 said that her daughter began taking Genesee Community College classes when she was 15. 这是怎么回事??

A: Any homeschooled student under the age of 18 can begin college classes through GCC’s ACE program if they pass the (ATB) Ability to Benefit placement test. The ACE Program gives homeschooled students the chance to participate in college-level courses 和 the tuition is only about one-third of GCC’s usual tuition.

Q. ACE课程在哪里提供?

A:虽然很多ACE课程都是在地区高中开设的, 今日学院ACE课程, are generally offered at all of GCC’s campus center locations including 商场, Dansville, 麦地那, 利马和华沙以及巴达维亚的主校区. 除了, homeschooled students are encouraged to sign up for any college course that fits their schedule, as long as they have passed the (ATB) Ability to Benefit placement test or fulfilled any course specific pre-requisites.

Q. 我们很难在家里教科学. ACE开设生物、化学或物理课程吗?

是的. 学生s can register for any science courses from our list of approved courses. 事实上是这样的, 有10个学生的门槛，他们需要一门特定的课程, GCC 和 ACE will offer this course at a convenient time 和 campus center location for any group of 10 or more homeschooled students. So let’s say you 和 a group other students from other homeschooled families need college-level biology course. 如果你能招到至少十个学生, 我们很乐意提供, Human Biology (BIO102) or Introduction to Chemistry (CHE100) in one of our labs for your group.

Q. 我听说学生可以在家学习并获得学分. 我的孩子可以通过这种方式注册吗?

答:绝对. 你可能在考虑我们的在线电子学习课程和学位. These courses are taught by the same faculty 和 cover the same curriculum as those in the classroom. 在线学习的学生必须有一台电脑, 高速互联网连接, 和 they should be motivated students who readily work independently with their own schedule.

Q. Once my child has secured his 纽约高中同等文凭 by taking courses from GCC’s ACE program, 他或她能留在GCC学习lol菠菜竞猜吗?

当然可以! However the discounted ACE tuition rate will end once your child has earned 24 college credit hours. 成为普通海湾合作委员会学生的过渡是无缝的. No further applications are necessary 和 he can easily continue the connections he might have made with faculty, 朋友, 学生社团和其他活动.

Q. How easy will it be for my son or daughter to be accepted into a four-year college or institution with a 纽约高中同等文凭?

A: All colleges 和 universities have their own unique enrollment 和 admission processes, but having college credit from a community college along with good academic st和ing 和 a strong application essay reflecting serious educational interests can be advantageous.
