High school extras
The parts of a homeschool high school beyond the transcript: college courses, credit exams, sports eligibility and applications.
Homeschooled teens can take college courses, earn credit by exam and apply to colleges and the NCAA, each with its own steps. The College Board's guide for homeschoolers explains CLEP, AP and the SAT; the NCAA Eligibility Center explains its homeschool documents. These pages summarize each source and link to the transcript and credit tools.
