  1. Homeschooling is commonplace nowadays, and many colleges actually recruit homeschoolers.  In most cases, you will not need to explain the "whys" and "wherefores" of your homeschool experience.

    What you do want to include in your application is information about your unique experience, things you have accomplished or learned which place you head and shoulders above the schooled applicants.

    Best of luck and enjoy college!  :)


  2. I put my standardized test scores (sat, 4 sat II's, 2 AP's, etc), wrote out a transcript of all the courses I took over the last 4 years, and submitted three essays.

    It worked pretty well for me. I just got accepted into NYU Fordham, and the University of Pennsylvania.

    Most colleges have special guidelines for their homeschooled aplicants. Just follow them, and you'll be fine.

  3. I do not understand what you mean by "homeschool application".  Please clarify, and I will update this response to try and answer your question.

    EDITED TO ADD:

    Your transcript including subjects studied and grades earned.  If any of your classes were outside, such as dual enrollment at a college or through an apprentice program you would include a note about that.

    Your ACT and/or SAT scores.

    A list of your extra-curricular activities.

    A list of any volunteering experiences you have had and other social/community activities.

    Any awards of commendations you have received.

    In your letter, you could include what opportunities homeschooling has afforded you and how you feel it has prepared you for college and any experiences related to your intended major.

    I hope this helps, and I wish you the best!

  4. I'll make up a homeschool name but something like :

    Will graduate  in 2015 from Briarcliff Academy

  5. Same stuff as any high school student.

    Courses, grades, extracurricular, community service, awards, ACT / SAT test scores.

    A homeschool student will fill out the exact same application as a ps school student.

    What goes on it depends on what you accomplish.
