Post Secondary Enrollment Options

Post Secondary Enrollment Options

Post Secondary Enrollment Options (also called PSEO) is an academic option open to high school seniors and juniors in various US states, such as Minnesota [cite web|url=http://education.state.mn.us/mde/Academic_Excellence/School_Choice/Post_Secondary_Enrollment_Options_PSEO/index.html |title=Post Secondary Enrollment Options PSEO — Minnesota Department of Education |accessdate=2008-01-16] and Ohio. [cite web|url=http://www.oagc.com/files/Post%20Secondary%20Enrollment%20Options.issuesandsolutions.9.05.pdf |title=Post Secondary Enrollment Options |publisher=Ohio Association for Gifted Children |type=PDF |accessdate=2008-01-20] The options allow students to take courses at the college level. It is possible for a student to graduate with both an associates degree and a high school diploma at the same time via PSEO. The PSEO program was created in 1985 by Minnesota, and later adopted by Ohio's Department of Education.cite web|url=http://www.mnscu.edu/students/specialprograms/pseo.html |title=Post-Secondary Enrollment Options |publisher= Minnesota State Colleges and Universities |accessdate=2008-01-20]

Minnesota

In Minnesota, the eligibility for PSEO is different than Ohio's. Juniors (11th graders) are required to be in the top one-third of their class to be in PSEO. Seniors (12th graders) are required to be in the top half of their class to be eligible for PSEO. [cite web|url=http://www.lsc.cc.mn.us/Admissions/PSEO/PSEOapp.cfm |title=PSEO/PSEO Application |accessdate=2008-01-20] In 2004 over 17,000 Minnesota High School students took PSEO classes.

Ohio

In Ohio, PSEO is actually known as PSEOP, for Post Secondary Enrollment Options Program. It was enacted in 1989 for 11th and 12th graders. Then, in 1997, the grades were expanded to include 9th and 10th graders. Because of this, the number of students in the PSEOP has almost quadrupled in size.
