I added a Business Courses section that lists some of the more common business-related exams along with free Saylor and Education Portal courses that can be used to prepare for them. Also included are example degree plans from TESC and COSC.
The Design Your Plan pages for Charter Oak and Thomas Edison are complete.
A surprising number of people find HC USA while searching for the free PASS textbooks. I'm guessing this means they are still unavailable online in the "usual" places. If you want copies of these free books - they're in PDF form - you can still try this (taken from the old blog): You may request your free copy [of the CD-ROMs with the student and teacher editions] by sending your full name and mailing address to: [email protected]. You do NOT have to be a Florida resident to request these books. They cover mostly core subjects in middle and high school, with a handful of electives.
If that doesn't work, please let me know through the CONTACT page and I will edit this post and talk with you privately about how to get copies. (Perfectly legally! It's just something I have been asked not to publicly post.) The Design Your Plan section is still under construction. I have also added some information about financial aid, including what to do if you college of choice (mistakenly) tells you that you must have an accredited diploma or GED in order to collect federal financial aid and how to use a Pell Grant to pay for a 4-year degree with little to no out-of-pocket expenses on your part.
Edited because while Deisgn looks like it might be the name of a really funky German car, I really did mean Design. I've added a page about financial aid under the High School Studies tab.
Also, I've begun work on the Design Your Plan section. If you are new here, don't forget you can still visit the current Homeschool College USA site to find the electives subject pages that I still haven't transferred over. ETA: Finished the FAQ page. |
