Online high school diplomas
Hello all. I am asking this question for a friend of mine that I used to go to high school with. He never passed the final exam back then and now, years later, he was thinking of taking the diploma online.
Anyhow, we spent some hours surfing the net looking at various online options. The only problem was that along the way we came across many warnings of fake schools, diplomas or accrediting institutions.
Our problem is that so many look good on paper. There was particularly one called Keystone which seemed to have a lot of very interesting courses.
So...
Does anyone know anything more specific about this? Particularly any schools or programs that might be an option. Also if anyone knows anything about Keystone high school that would also be interesting.
Thanks a bunch :)

When I was sixteen, I was informed that because I was homeschooled I could not receive an accredited high school diploma. Instead I decided to take the equivalency test.
My suggestion: locate technical institutes and adult education centers in his area. I'm guessing that the best way to find out who is accredited and who is not... Would be to contact the state's department of technical and adult education. (I say that because my GED was signed by the commissioner and his assistant.)
I know that there is a fee to take the test, I just can't remember how much it is. Also... When you locate an accredited institute or center, ask about GED prep classes. At the institute that I attended those classes could be taken by anyone free of charge.
Wish I could remember more... Best of luck to your friend ;)

i actually received my high school diploma from key stones high school... it is a very accredited high school. i got accepted to university of florida by graduating with keystones. i know what you are worried about when i decided to do online schooling there were so many options and so many choices, and schools that seemed to be good were actually fakes. you should definitively go with key stone high school, it is actually located in colorado, you get to meet your professor and the class room set up is amazing. hope i helped.
