An academic transcript that indicates the student successfully completed at least a two-year
program that is acceptable for full credit toward a bachelor’s degree.

secondary school completion credential for homeschooling (other than a high school diploma or
its 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 successfully completed a secondary school education in a homeschool
setting.
A student who is unable to obtain the documentation listed above must contact the financial aid office.
