Admission Criteria for TESU

[acethroughcollege]

(typing same time as dfrecore so this might repeat what she wrote)

side topic clarification here:

People can use Abeka without being in their long distance academy and would not be eligible to get a transcript from them.   Same with all of the other hundreds of hs products on the market. mfw , sl, bju, notgrass, MUS, Saxon, etc etc etc......


Home school curriculum providers do not issue transcripts or diplomas. They sell books and lesson plans and similar.

Schools and academies, and parents who are legally homeschooling can issue transcripts, etc.    Yes, some schools have a specific publisher with same name (such as Abeka, or BJU for two examples) so it gets a little confusing that way.

I realize this kind of stuff is not the purpose of this forum.

To original poster:  You don't have to get GED or HiSET (the other high school equivalency exam), but if you want to do that, it's an option to you if you did not complete your program and couldn't say in good faith that you graduated.    Best wishes getting your ACE credit and RA credit and applying to TESU when ready.

Thanks so much!

Most homeschoolers don't homeschool through a program like Abeka.  Your parents can just issue a diploma.  If you're in a state that requires an umbrella school, that entity would issue it.  There are other options as well.

Ohh Gotcha! I didn't realize traditional homeschooling was still an option in most states.

You're absolutely right. I apologize if I caused any confusion. I'm old..lol

Thanks everyone, we just used the curriculum that we wanted when we needed to learning something. I guess you can say we are eclectic homeschoolers who didnt follow a set curriculum but used different methods depending on what we were seeking to achieve.  I will be working on the homeschool diploms. I have everything on a spreadsheet just need something that looks professional.

for something professional looking for the diploma: two of the more popular options https://www.homeschooldiploma.com/
and https://store.hslda.org/high-school-dipl...-p825.aspx
think of those as fancy way to document and celebrate. Or make your own based on samples if the price is too high.

The transcript.. on the other hand
for professional transcripts: see the free resource I linked earlier. It will walk and talk you through it. If you don't need that,
use search engine for homeschool transcript templates. remember to include graduation date even if the template doesn't. If search engine is overwhelming here's random one that looks fine and seems to be Excel ready https://www.nche.com/helps/high-school/transcript/
plenty templates out there. some you need to give them your email first. Others are actual services.

Our family was another used the stuff we wanted to use.

Hope some of those links help you to quickly make the transcript in case you need it.
