Does home schooling impact college opportunities?
It is our informed opinion that the concentration on quality education
found in home schools provides a better preparation for a rigorous
college education than that available through the majority of
traditional schools. That this is generally upheld in practice is no longer seriously in question.
At Eagle Academy, the combination of emphasis on original sources and scientific method with the latest in information technology provides, in our
judgment, the best possible foundation for higher education.
Additionally, the level of our high school courses is of a quality
rarely found in traditional schools.
The following postings appear to indicate that many colleges and
universities share our confidence in home schooling:

Here is a reprint of a list prepared by Dan Endsley of Home
Education League of Parents, listing more than 100 two-year and four-year
colleges that have accepted home-schooled children. This list was based
on information from Home School Legal Defense Association and other
sources, current to early 1993. I have revised the format of the list
enough that I may have introduced typing mistakes and other errors into
Dan's original work (note: Formatting changes and World Wide Web
linkages added by Eagle Academy.). Your suggestions for additions or
corrections are welcomed.
