I am trying to find out info about this program for my son soon to be 16. I feel the quicker he can get a GED or Diploma the better. He is willing to go to regular school but does not do the work. I was told you have a 17.5 month program then he would be able to take the GED and be done is this true?

My son will be 16 in November 2015. I am very interested in applying for this program. I feel this will help him get things on track sooner rather than later. Is there any way they ever allow at 15 & 1/2 yr old to apply?
