The postsecondary options program is a course of study allowing public school students to receive, for the same course, Carnegie unit credit from a public high school and postsecondary credit hours from a Georgia public college, university, or technical institute. Any student enrolled in a Georgia public high school who is classified as a junior or senior or who is at least 16 years of age who meets the joint enrollment requirements of a particular school and has written verification of eligibility by the high school principal, is eligible to participate in the PSO program. For more information, students should contact their counselor and/or the Director of Admissions at a University System of Georgia institution and/or public technical institute, prior to the sophomore and/or junior year.
