recognized equivalent), a copy of that credential.
For a student who was homeschooled in a State where State law does not require the student to obtain
a secondary school completion credential for homeschooling (other than a high school diploma or its
recognized equivalent), a transcript, or the equivalent, signed by the student's parent or guardian, that
lists the secondary school courses the student completed and includes a statement that the student
