Hey guys! I just got back from the Community high school. It seems most colleges, and the military don't except GEDs as real diplomas, so I am going to show these people what I have done, and take a grading test, and they are supposed to give me a diploma!

Is this because you are homeschooled?? There is supposed to be a special consideration given for homeschoolers...I remember reading about it just recently...

Go hear and type in military...

That's great that the local high school will do that! Ours won't, so that's why I registered Clare with a high school in Maine that checks over her work, will create the packages that go with college applications, and issue a diploma when all her work is done. I knew about the military and some scholarship possibilities not accepting the GED, so I wanted her to get her diploma.

The State of Maine only requires 17 1/2 credits for a diploma, but she'll have done all the requirements, and have the 22 credits that are required by the State of MA before she gets hers so that there's no question if she wants to attend a State University in MA.
