ASN Prep Institute is a FREE year-round open-enrollment GED (high school equivalency) program for out-of-school Illinois youth ages 17 to 24 - offering in-person and distance learning (online) instruction.
ASN Prep’s 12-week sessions are designed to strengthen student proficiency in Language Arts, Math, Science and Social Studies; and build confidence as they learn to analyze and evaluate subject matter using critical test-taking strategies. Progress can be accelerated by students’ demonstrating early preparedness to take subject area tests. GED certification is awarded when official tests have been passed, regardless to length of enrollment.
Youth Skills, Scholars and Services (YS3), Youth Experiencing Success (YES) and Re-Enrolled Student Project (RSP) programs offer such supportive services as mentoring, tutoring, individual or group counseling, cultural and recreational activities. Transition services include job readiness training, career coaching, internship/work-based learning placements, continuing education advisement/enrollment assistance, and dual-enrollment opportunity to earn college credit.
High school completion helps to ensure more competitive job opportunity, and eligibility for college enrollment/vocational training. ASN Prep’s primary goal is to inspire and support students as they better position themselves for leadership and service in an ever-changing global society.
Students must be officially withdrawn from Chicago Public Schools, or their previously attended high school. Interview and placement test required.
