Admission Requirements for Ancient Homeschooled Students - Spalmer - 12-05-2023
Hello,
I am a 45 year old who is considering UMPI. I was homeschooled, and graduated way back in 1996. I do NOT have high school transcripts, only a diploma. I have 12 credits from SNHU, 27 credits from Sophia, and have recently completed the Google Data Analytics Certificate from Coursera.
If I were to get an Associate's from Pierpont (or anywhere else) before applying to UMPI, would they waive the high school transcript requirement?
Thanks in advance for any help!

To answer your question, yes, if you have an Associates already, they would skip the High School transcript requirement. You have a good path here, the trifecta of certs, degree, experience and can work towards your current goal by doing the Pierpont BOG AAS and ladder to a Bachelors of choice... For reference of the various options you have, you can review your previous thread: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Need-Advice-for-Degree-Type-and-Plan

To add to bjcheung77's post, in case it wasn't clear, Pierpont doesn't require transcripts/diplomas from older students. This is true whether the student graduated from a homeschool situation or a traditional HS.
