Your question as I understood is half the way.  However, I can tell you in India, there are a number of reputed Universities &Educational Institutions where you can get admissions for higher studies without having formal education on certain  norms under "OPEN UNIVERSITY"/SCHOOL schemes. You may explore the possibility to avail this. I am unable to proceed further in this regard without knowling the place/Country  where  you reside.

Because they can PASS the Pre-entrance exams !  My grandson graduated , at the age of 17, with high scores.  They still have to pass the State Tests, & maybe take a night course, to get whatever subject they need.    Home-schoolers doesn't get to slack off, but they have the One-on-one that they need.

Answer 18

Many universities understand that homeschooled kids are better able to think independently and manage their time to effectively complete their collegiate level coursework.  Performing on the SATs or ACTs is just as important.  Some homeschooled kids take college level courses in high school, as well.  For example, it's not uncommon for a 16 year old homeschooled student to take college Algebra, Trig, or Calculus I at a local community college.   The college level transcripts, in these cases, are far beyond anything that publicly educated kids will have.  There are also online programs that offer accredited diplomas for homeschooled students who follow the curriculum.  We use a Catholic program called Seton Home Study.  It is optional for the parents to record and submit all tests and grades so that an official transcript can be kept for their homeschooled children.  Upon completion of the high school program, diplomas are issued (some kids even go to the graduation ceremonies).

Answer 19

Most universities have special policies set up on how to deal with home-schooled applicants. Here's an interesting article to read about it...  http://www.venturacountystar.com/news/20...

Home-schooled students do have to rely heavily on testing and application essays.  They also have to provide a detailed transcript of the classes they take.  It will be more difficult for universities to evaluate those transcripts because there is nothing to compare it with, so they definitely have to shine on essays and exams. Also, because home-schooled students cannot provide recommendation from professors, they need to prove themselves through personal interviews and some schools will accept personal references.

In other words (contrary to popular belief on here): HOME-SCHOOLED KIDS DO NOT GET INTO SCHOOL THE SAME WAY OTHERS DO!!! IT IS DIFFERENT FOR THEM.

Answer 20

Take the test needed to get in and do well, as for grades and that sort, I believe you might have to have an interview to demonstrate your applied knowledge.
