Synopsis
Making informed decisions about college is difficult enough for traditional students who plan to enter college after their senior year. Those who deviate from this trajectory and exhaust their high school's course offerings 1, 2, or even 3 or more years before their age peers may consider part-time or full-time college as an alternative. Understandably, for prospective early entrants and their parents, decisions regarding college are considerably more complicated. This comprehensive guide, which incorporates the views of experts on early college entrance (ECE), ECE program administrators, early entrants, and their parents, is aimed at helping families navigate through the complex decision-making process. This book identifies important issues that need to be discussed and choices that need to be made before and after one enters college. Factors affecting academic, social, and emotional adjustment to college are explored, and information about ECE programs in the United States is provided.

About the Author
Drawing on her years of experience working as a coordinator and counselor of gifted students in the National Academy of Arts, Sciences, and Engineering, an early college entrance program at The University of Iowa (UI), Michelle Muratori was inspired to study the academic, social, and personal adjustment of students who enter college early. Muratori holds a doctorate in counseling psychology from UI, and continues to advocate for and work with highly gifted students and their families through the Center for Talented Youth at Johns Hopkins University as a senior counselor and researcher. In addition, she teaches master's level courses as a faculty associate in the Counseling and Human Services Department at Johns Hopkins University.
