It has been a busy year for Joy-Anna Duggar. She scored a State House internship, courted and married Austin Forsyth, and now she is expecting her first baby. Now, will the 19-year-old mom-to-be break Duggar tradition and go to college?
Romper reports that the newlywed has the option to further her education, but has not yet revealed what her plans are after the baby is born. The Duggars have always done their own thing when it comes to school, so it makes sense that Joy-Anna could opt for some college classes.
All 19 Duggar kids received their education via a religious-based homeschooling curriculum, but none have yet to go the route of traditional college. Instead, they choose online college courses from a Christian educational organization called College Plus. Michelle Duggar wrote on her blog that the family has chosen long-distance learning because it allows her kids to pursue other experiences and it also keeps costs low, which falls in line with their budget-free lifestyle.
