Homeschool High School – How Do You Get Public Schools to Accept Homeschool Credits?
Two families, two students, same question, same answer.
A mom called me for transcript help. Her daughter homeschooled for two years, using Alpha Omega LifePacs and Weaver Curriculum for 9th and 10th grade. Once her daughter got up to grade level, she wanted her to go back to public school. She asked me how to get her homeschool transcript accepted by a public high school.
Today, a father called me for transcript help. His daughter homeschooled for one year, using Alpha Omega Switched on Schoolhouse during 9th grade. Now he wants his daughter to go back into public school, and asked how to get his homeschool transcript accepted.

Scholarships For Mothers Returning to School – Find Free Money For School
The picture of today’s college student is a much different one than it was 10 years ago. Each year more and more adults go back to school to pursue higher education and increase their earning potential in the workplace. With this surge in adult interest, colleges are transforming their coursework to accommodate the needs of their new students. By offering flexible class scheduling and online classes, working adults, particularly working moms, are able to go back to school while continuing to work and maintain their other responsibilities.
One thing, however, has not changed. College continues to be very expensive regardless of what you study or how old you are, and costs seem to go up each year. There are lots of moms out there with the ambition to go back to school, but they don’t have the funds to pay for it.

Online Colleges: Is Financial Aid Available?
One of the frequently asked questions about attaining an education is whether or not financial aid is available. This is a very legitimate question to ask in regards to online colleges.
Typically, online colleges participate in many of the same grant and loan programs as traditional colleges and universities. Financial aid programs, such as the Federal Pell Grant is designed to help students with tuition cost. Another program, known as the Federal Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant, commonly referred to as “FSEOG,” is a grant program that is awarded and based on extreme financial need. This particular grant is often facilitated by students who are seeking a conventional or online degree.
Colleges online will frequently take part in loan programs like the Federal Stafford Student Loan, and additional loan programs as well. Just like any traditional schools, online colleges will provide information to students about filling out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) online, and encourage prospective students to do so.
