The options are nearly limitless! Choose the level of involvement that best works for YOU! 

Once we receive your application, we will reach out to your school counselor for a copy of your current high school transcript and will ask them to complete a short form to help us understand your graduation needs.  If you have not yet taken high school classes, you will need to submit an acceptable college readiness score or schedule to take one of our free placement tests to demonstrate your readiness for college work. 

Homeschool Students:  Since you do not have a School Counselor, your parent will need to supply a current transcript with GPA calculated for any high school work completed.  You can choose from sample transcript templates HERE if you like.
