Hello, everyone!

I know that there are homeschoolers on this site, so maybe somebody was in similar situation and can answer my question. I am planning to enroll in TESC and their policy states that, "To apply to an undergraduate program at Thomas Edison State College, you must be at least 21 years old and possess a high school diploma or a General Educational Development (GED) certificate."

I am not 21 years old but I read on the forum how to apply for an age waiver. The biggest question is if they will admit me with my homeschool highschool diploma. I have 45 college credits on ACE transcript up to date. Will that help to waive their official state highschool diploma requirement?

Yes, they will! I was also homeschooled and after writing a waiver letter and showing all the credits I had completed, they didn't have any problems accepting me. In fact, I don't think they ever asked to see my diploma! You should be just fine. Smile
