Will I be able to take business courses at the city college?

Question by bloop: Will I be able to take business courses at the city college?
I am 15 years old and I was wondering if I could take a music business class over the summer or not. Could I take any of the other classes related to that? (I am aware that I will have to pay, and that I will not get any credits). But if I am able to take classes would this help me in the future? as far as advancing my career as a music supervisor.

Many colleges and junior colleges will require a diploma or a ged in order to enroll. Also for some courses, you may need to have an SAT or ACT score, though some schools may have a PSAT you can take during open enrollment that can qualify you for that semester.

Some highschools and colleges have dual credit agreements for certain courses, so you may be able to get credit for HS and for college.

If you take a college course, you’d get credit unless you do an “audit”. You’d only want to audit a course if you didn’t think you could pass it or otherwise didn’t want the chance of gaining credit for it.

You can go to the admissions office and they will have course lists, schedules, enrollment requirements, etc. If you need an exception to age rules, you may need to speak with the dean of admissions.

If you’re seriously considering this, then you need to act now. Enrollment for Summer I mini-mester probably has already begun, and it may take a little bit of time to figure out exactly what course you want to take, and what it’s requirements are.
