College Is Changing—Is Your Teen Ready for What’s Next?

📝 Show Notes:

The college world has changed. Costs are skyrocketing, transfer credits are a gamble, and many campuses no longer align with your family’s values. So what do you do when you want your teen to thrive in today’s economy—without drowning in debt?

In this episode, Lisa Nehring introduces a game-changing alternative: the Dual Degree Program from True North Academy. It’s a revolutionary opportunity for homeschool students to earn a fully accredited 4-year bachelor’s degree while still in high school—from real colleges with real credentials.

This might sound too good to be true… but it’s not. It’s a bold solution for forward-thinking families.
