Legitimately Finish High School in Under One Year
If you are fourteen years and older, you can graduate up to three years early from high school.
The online coursework and early graduation assessment services provided at Independent Education allow students to leave their high schools and complete remaining coursework in a professional office with supervision and one on one tutoring. Computers and basic school supplies are provided for students. Our students complete their coursework inside a calm, quiet professional office in an environment free from distraction.
Who is a good candidate for early graduation?
Students fourteen and older who are interested in exiting high school early.
Students seeking to enter the work world ahead of their peers.
Students unsatisfied with their present high school experience.
Advanced students bored with high school seeking the challenge of college.
Average students wanting to get ahead in their academic process.
Single mothers unable to attend high school.
Struggling students who have fallen behind and want to catch up with their peers.
Learning disabled students with difficulty concentrating in crowded classrooms.
Adults seeking high school diplomas in order to pursue college.
Adults looking to get their high school diplomas for personal or employment reasons.
How long does the early graduation program take?
The early graduation program typically takes between one and six months to complete all degree requirements and receive an accredited high school diploma. There are no time limits or deadlines regarding how long students take to get through their courses. Most students can complete all 24 subjects in less than three months by studying three hours per weekday.
Is the diploma accredited, and will it be accepted by colleges?
Graduating students receive accredited high school diplomas, not GED’s. All degrees are accredited by both the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA), two well known accreditation associations recognized and accepted by most all colleges in the United States and other world nations.
Can I get credit for high school classes I’ve already taken?
Students will receive course equivalent credit for prior classes that directly match our graduation requirements. Students do not have to retake requirements which have been met via transfer credit. Prior classes that do not directly match graduation requirements are only awarded elective credit.
What are the courses like?
The twenty four required courses represent a condensed high school curriculum covering the basic elements of standard high school classes. Each course comes with a study guide containing all information necessary to complete assignments and pass the assessment. Students complete several assignments followed by an assessment based on contents of the study guides.
Can I redo assignments, assessments and courses if I do poorly the first time through?
All assignments, assessments, and courses can be attempted an unlimited number of times in order to achieve mastery and passing grades without penalty or extra tuition charges.
Will I be missing out on important learning by graduating early?
Many subjects covered in high school are required courses at colleges. Additionally, most community colleges offer high school equivalency courses in the areas of math, reading and composition. Students needing refreshment skills in these areas can take all needed classes at local colleges. Most two and four year colleges have core curriculums requiring students to take roughly two semesters of English Composition, Math, Science, History/Humanities, Politics/Sociology, and Foreign Languages. Often these classes are only slightly more difficult than the same subjects as taught in high schools.
