As a homeschooled student, you have a unique perspective and set of experiences that will prepare you for success in college. However, it is important to choose a college that will provide you with the support and resources you need to succeed in your academic and personal endeavors.
According to a recent study by the Coalition for Responsible Home Education (CRHE), 91% of homeschooled students who graduated from college were employed within six months. This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of homeschooled students, but it also highlights the importance of choosing a college that will help you develop the skills and knowledge you need to be successful in the workforce.
In addition to employment rates, homeschooled students also have high success rates in college. A study by the National Home Education Research Institute (NHERI) found that 69% of homeschooled students succeed in college and adulthood. This is due in part to the fact that homeschooled students are often self-motivated and independent learners. However, it is also important to choose a college that will provide you with the academic support you need to succeed in your coursework, like Madonna University.
Finally a study by the CRHE found that 67% of homeschool students successfully graduate from college, which is a higher graduation rate than the national average.
