How to Apply as a Graduate of an Unaccredited High School or Home School Program

If your home school program or high school is not accredited by one of the approved accreditation agencies, you are on the right web page.  If your program is accredited, please use the new freshman requirements and application procedures.

Requirements for All New Unaccredited Home School or High School Applicants

  • 16 or older before the first day of class.  Younger students may be considered on a case-by-case basis.
  • If you are transferring from a college you must also meet our transfer admission criteria.
  • Submit a homeschool summary form (PDF) and homeschool portfolio. If you enroll in any college, ask the college to submit an official transcript.

Approved home-school and high school accrediting agencies

  • If a bachelor’s degree applicant does not meet one of the above requirements, they will automatically be considered for associate pathway admission. Associate pathway freshman applicants must have at least a 2.0 unweighted high school GPA in the required high school curriculum to be considered for admission.
  • While submission of ACT or SAT scores is not required for admission to UNG through summer 2024, there may be implications of not submitting them if you have them. Learn more about Learning Support course requirements. Submission of test scores does not change a student's admissibility.

What is the best advice you can give for a student looking at colleges?

Look for a school that challenges your comfort zone and broadens your horizons, experiences, and helps you grow academically.

What is one thing you wish you knew in college that you know now?

I wish I knew about the tons of resources available to me at UNG. There are so many programs, internships, and organizations that can help you during college and prepare you for careers after college.
