I want to start community college in the fall and I called my childhood school board today to see if they have anything about me graduating on file. My parents never gave me a diploma when I “graduated high school” in 2015.
The school board transferred me to the homeschool department.
The lady said there was nothing on my profile, except that I was in a homeschooling program from 2003-2012. I asked her why my program ended 3 years early and she said the system doesn’t say why, it just says that’s when I finished the program.
How could I have finished the program at age 15? I asked my parents and they said they never asked for my program to be closed. But I also never got a diploma.
The school board said they can’t help me because there is no other information on my profile. They said I should’ve asked my parents for a diploma.
How is them printing out a piece of paper at home an official document for college?
Now I’m trying to figure out what to do because they had no high school credits or anything whatsoever on file. And my parents didn’t keep any transcripts.
I’m looking into online “adult high school” because you can get a diploma that way, but with 0 high school credits it could take up to 2 years to get the standard 24 credits.
Or I could just take my GED. If I go that route I want to study and get college credit with good scores, not just barely pass to say I finally “graduated” 11 years late.
Has anyone been through something similar?
Would you recommend the adult high school diploma or a GED?
I’m in Florida if it helps.
