MOVE ON WHEN READYMove On When Ready (MOWR) is Georgia's dual enrollment program that allows high school students (9th -12th grade) to earncollege credits, or even a certificate, diploma or associate degree, while working on their high school diploma. MOWR replacesAccel, HOPE Grant for dual enrollment and the previous Move on When Ready. MOWR is designed to make it easier for studentsto take advantage of all the options to enroll in college courses while still in high school.STUDENT ELIGIBILITYeAny student attending a public or private high school in Georgia or an eligible home study program Student's high school or home study program has completed a Participation Agreemente9th through 12th grade (eligibility ends four years after the student first enters 9th grade) No re sidency requirementeStudents must sign an advisement form with their high school or home study program Participating students can attend more than one postsecondary institution at a time and receive awards at both Admissions requirements at the chosen postsecondary institution(s) must be meteeStudents must meet Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) as required by the postsecondary institution(s) selectedStudents that complete high school graduation requirements prior to officia lly graduating may continue participation inMOWR until his/her scheduled high school graduation date.COURSE OPTIONSStudents must select eligible courses from the Move On When Ready Course Directory on GAfutures.org. The Course Directoryincludes comparable required courses such as degree and non-degree level core courses (English, math, science, social studies,foreign language), career, technical and agricultural education courses, as well as electives. Course selections must be approvedfor high school credit by the student's high school counselor.MOWR courses are available for fall, spring and summer semesters and fall, winter, spring and summer quarters.TUITION, MANDATORY FEES AND BOOKSThe specific MOWR award amount will vary based on the postsecondary institution and the number of credit hours in whicha student is enrolled. Complete MOWR award amounts are available on GAfutures.org. In most cases, awards will cover allrequired standard tuition, mandatory fees and required book expenses. In some instances, students may be responsible for lostor damaged books, books that are considered optiona l, or specific course-related fees, such as a lab fee. Earning college credits while still in high school may enable students to graduate early and/or possibly even earn anassociate degree, diploma or certificate. Dual enrollm ent can help students adjust to certain aspects of the college experience (e.g., classes, coursework, instruction,being on a college campus) so the transition from high school to college may be easier. Students who participate in a dual enrollment program are more likely to go to college and get a college degree. Students may be able to take classes that are not offered at their high school, especially in subject areas they are interestedin for a potential career. Taking college-level classes while still in high school may build confidence and encourage those students who may not bethinking about college to reconsider.
