ANSEP students can go from finishing eighth grade to a Bachelor’s degree in five years with Acceleration Academy!
- ANSEP families can save $75,000 or more in college costs when their students attend an ANSEP full time Acceleration Academy high school.
- Starting the clock in ninth grade, the expected cost to local/state/federal government of a degree at the University of Alaska Anchorage is nearly $300,000 because only about one third of students attempting degrees succeed after 10 years.
- Using the same criteria with the ANSEP model, the cost is less than $100,000, remediation is eliminated, and the social cost of failure is reduced.
ANSEP is working with thousands of students from more than 100 communities starting in Kindergarten and every year through the PhD.
