The bespoke nature of homeschooling can be a great advantage for tailoring education to a student’s individual needs. However, those differentiated programs present challenges when the time comes to apply to college. Amy and Mike invited education consultants Michele Evard and Holly Ramsey to review the intricacies of college documentation for homeschoolers.

  1. What do stakeholders in the admission process need to know about homeschool documentation?
  2. What are some best practices for homeschool documentation?
  3. How do homeschoolers show the depth & breadth of their studies?
  4. Who writes recommendations for homeschooled students, and do colleges believe them?
  5. Should homeschoolers claim credit for every potential learning experience?
