In this episode of the Making Sense of Money podcast, Danielle sits down with Ashley James from Lewis-Clark State College to explore the many benefits of dual credit and early college opportunities for high school students. Ashley explains how students can earn college credit while still in high school, potentially saving thousands of dollars in tuition and getting a head start on their educational and career goals.
Together, they discuss how Idaho’s Advanced Opportunities program helps cover the cost of dual credit classes, the different ways students can participate, and why these programs are about more than just saving money.

Ashley also shares why asking questions, exploring scholarships, and understanding your financial options can make a lasting impact on a student’s future.
