Does My Homeschooled Child Need A High School Diploma To Go To College?

The county school board administrator told me that my child needs a FL state high school diploma if my child wants to, “go to college.” The administrator specifically said that my child, “will have to have a state diploma to be accepted by any college, or university.”

The previous statement is what many county school board administrators, and most of the virtual school customer service personnel, tell parents, especially homeschool parent. This is sooo untrue! You will find some relative information to this subject in the article at the following blog link:

Does my homeschooled child need a high school diploma to go to college?

Nooo! By Florida law, no!

The graduate’s transcripts are what schools of “higher education,” some businesses and companies, law firms, school districts, etc., will require when the graduate applies!
