Step 15: Consider an online college

Be warned: Taking online college classes or earning an online college degree is still college. Online college classes are not easier because you don't have to physically go to a classroom each day. Online students must be dedicated, hard working, and adept at using technology.

Take online college classes while you're in high school to earn college credit, take them in college to free up your class schedule, or look into earning your entire degree online if that's how you learn best.
