Do you have info on the HSD? Exactly how many credits you need, and any required courses they have? That would help in matching you with a school.

yes it's 47 credits total. I already have completed half of them.

I still need 4 english courses including: creative writing, literature and speech

4 math courses including: algebra, geometry, precalc and calc1

2 Courses in biology, chemistry or physics
4 Courses in US history, World history, economics and government 
1 health education course
Some world Language courses like german, french, spanish whatever.
2 courses in the fine arts

the rest would be electives I could choose

Speaking as someone who took a few courses at Tel Learning, they are not difficult but the assignments can weeks to grade. English comp I was easy but I had to hound them to grade each assignment.

Snow changed their website, and it's now terrible and uninformative. They used to have the tuition info on there, as well as the list of courses, and it was all pretty easy to find. They also had a link to try out a course or two and see what they were like.

Here's the link for the requirements, it lines up with the courses they used to list on the website. Of COURSE they have a list of self-paced courses; how would they NOT know which courses they offered? That's just silly. Or the person who you spoke with was lazy. Anyway: https://snow.edu/online/program-details.html

No idea on the courses, I don't think anyone on here has used them.
