Students can easily transfer into our program. If students enter from public or private schools, we simply request their current school records, accept credits based on those records, and send the appropriate courses for students to continue their studies. For homeschool students entering our program, we ask for written descriptions of the courses studied, grades earned and the type of curriculum used. For all students in grades 9-12 we also develop a graduation plan based on previous credits earned.
