Question: Homeschooling through High School?

I would like to homeschool my daughter through high school. But what about college after she gets through with high school. she wants to be a vet. does anyone or has anyone homeschooled thier children through high school, and what curriculum have you used. and did you go through an accredited school?

Answer: Growing numbers of universities accept homeschoolers with or without official transcripts (check on individual colleges). See http://learninfreedom.org/colleges_4_hmsc.html and

http://www.homeschoolfriendlycolleges.com/index.html

Many homeschool high school programs give transcripts; costs vary! American School, Keystone, Seton, Conlara with CompuHigh, University of Nebraska-Lincoln, North Dakota Division of Independent Study, Univ. of Missouri, Oak Meadow, etc. (websearch this and request info. from your favorites).

Accredidation of Homeschool Programs ALSO varies. The "Big 6" (main) accreditors are: Middle States Association, New England Association of Schools and Colleges, North Central Assoc., North West Assoc., Sourthern Assoc., and Western Association. Other accredidations don't carry as much clout, but they do show the school has been examined.

State colleges tend to be pickier about accredidation of hs transcripts. Private schools have more flexibility. Some colleges already have a history of preferring home schoolers (see lists above)!

ALSO, if your daughter goes to a community college first (which saves you money), the 4 year school will not care what accredidation her high school transcript has, be it from you or from an expensive company. They'd look closely at her cc grades.

If she continues to be serious about veterinarian school, apprentice her to a local vet in high school (volunteer work). That gives her hands-on experience that will either "cure" her passion or give her something good to put on transcripts for college. She'd need classes heavy in science and math (check Apologia books for science, Teaching Textbooks for math)

Good luck!!
