6/2/2015 – Is this Diploma the same as graduating in a regular highschool?
Response From The HSLDA Store: HSLDA’s diplomas are professional forms, but HSLDA is not accrediting or validating the student’s completion of high school. The signature of the homeschool teacher / parent on the diploma (whether you get the diploma from HSLDA or elsewhere) validates that the student completed a high school program and has graduated. Homeschool graduates who have completed their program in compliance with state law are eligible for admission into the military on an equal basis with all other graduates. Most colleges and jobs will recognize a homeschool diploma on an equal basis with other diplomas. We encourage homeschool graduates to contact HSLDA if they experience discrimination as a result of their education.
5/26/2015 – Is this an official or an accredited diploma? Does this have the same value as a diploma that a studen from a public school would receive?
Response From The HSLDA Store: HSLDA’s diploma is not accredited. Homeschoolers who have an accredited diploma have attended an accredited high school program and their diploma is issued by the program.

7/22/2014 – Does this count as an actual diploma...can I get into the military with it?
Response From The HSLDA Store: Dear Morgan,
Typically a military recruiter will require a homeschool diploma along with lesson plans for your student trying to get into the military. This diploma can help you with that and should be accepted by recruiters. If you find this is not the case, please feel free to contact us for assistance.
