Age waiver denied from TESU. Policy changed Jan. 1, 2018

My daughter turns 16 in December. Thomas Edison had it mapped out so nicely ☹️ Her plan was in Liberal Studies.

Let me know if you learn anything new.  I am looking at revamping some of our plan to include more UL.  I think we can still pull off a spring '19 grad.  My girl just wants to check school off the list so she can pursue whatever learning strikes her fancy.  She loves to learn, and she is driven to move past the "hafta" with freedom to pursue the "wanna." 

If this is the case why be in a hurry? Maybe it's better for her to learn that in life you have to mix the "hafta" and "wanna" all the time. Maybe she could use the time waiting to get into TESU (or whatever) to pursue some of her wannas.

fork, I'm not answering for the op, but I will add that when you are DIYing your degree, it is important to lock in a catalog so the requirements don't change. As an example, if you're planning your courses and exams - but TESU changes their gen eds this summer, that's a big deal. Not a big deal when you have a few credits, but a VERY big deal when you have 90+ credits. So, there is a sense of urgency to get credits counted and applied as soon as possible. (that doesn't mean as soon as possible at a certain age, rather at a stage of credit-earning) In the case of this post, they've already been pushed back multiple times. It's fair to be nervous in this case.
