Graduating early when homeschooled?

I am glad I graduated early. I used Penn Foster, and I graduated early. It is an accredited program, and you will earn an accredited diploma. I am fourteen and have graduated high school. I am an overachiever, so it only took me about five months and six days to graduate all four years of high school. I have started college courses at a local community college, and I have a part time job. I understand why you want to graduate early, because I wanted to graduate early for the same reason :] I applied for thirteen major universities and got into all of them. I am not going to go to college until I am eighteen. I got into Harvard, Yale, Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, James Madison University, Stanford and seven others. I would go for a diploma. :] I hope my information was useful.

It does not sound like you are getting the proper home schooling education. To get into college, everyone needs to take the SAT's or the ACT's and of course graduate from high school. You have lots of time and you need to mature before taking on more work.

I am graduating early too and do online school. Call or email your guidance counselor or grad planner and find out how many more credits you need so you can figure out how to grad early.

Are you in one of the states where your parents form a private school in order to legally homeschool? If so, then they may graduate you from high school whenever they want to, and issue you a diploma created on your home computer. Put it in a frame. Done. You only need a GED if you plan to join a union as an apprentice. So much depends on what career you have your heart set on, and what the requirements are for entering that career field. Find that out, and you have the answer to your question. Our son started taking college classes when he was 15 at the local community college. You don't have to have a high school diploma to start taking college classes. You just have to have the knowledge and background to thrive in a college-level course. Most colleges will give placement tests for English, math and a foreign language, and then admit you to take the appropriate level courses. (With the economy in the state it is in, it may be harder for younger students to get into college classes, but it can't hurt to ask.) It can pay to stay as a "high school student" rather than to be "graduated" right now. You can still start working on your career, but your status as a "high school student" with good grades may keep your car insurance down, and may help you get discounts at community college. So make sure you really NEED a diploma at this time. Ann Zeise A to Z Home's Cool http://homeschooling.gomilpitas.com

Well since you're homeschooled you won't get a diploma unless your state gives them out. Take the SAT or ACT and go to college early. http://www.hoagiesgifted.org/early_college.htm If you don't plan on going to college early, there really isn't a reason to "graduate" early. But you're homeschooled, you're in charge of your own education and can learn as much as you want. http://lowryhousepublishers.com/TeenageLiberationHandbook.htm
