I posted this because of an interview with admissions officer from a highly ranked school. At the time his school was recruiting homeschoolers because they arrived on campus with less emotional “baggage” that that the college services had to unpack.
All this is anecdotal. I doubt studies have been done by unbiased sources.
I am a homeschool mom of four. I have been well connected in my hs communty and one would look out my back window and see another 8 to 14 hs kids playng on any given day. I was involved wth a number of hs groups for at least 15 years and also went to local conferences and held workshops and lectures in my specialty,at local and regional conferences.
I know what I am talking about.
The people who see hs kids requesting college admissions is also seeing a small selected group.
