Many high school students now have the chance to earn an accredited online high school diploma from a reputable university. Several traditional colleges are now in the business of teaching high schoolers – at a price. A lot of these programs are rather expensive. However, they do offer benefits such as access to college-level courses and university application help.
My latest About.com article explores the benefits and drawbacks of university-affiliated online high schools. Here's a blurb:
"A growing number of brick-and-mortar universities are offering online high school programs. University-affiliated programs such as Stanford's EPGY School and University of Oklahoma High School offer students anywhere in the nation the opportunity to earn a diploma completely online. Although these online high schools vary in curriculum and cost, most university-affiliated programs are regionally accredited and are highly regarded. Students attending university-affiliated online high schools are often permitted to take some college-level courses through their school's regular distance learning program."
