help out please 2007/05/27 23:55 Karma: 0  
Hi,
My name is Robina. I'm 19 years old and need help with my education.You
see I belong to a Pakistani family and in my culture it is common for a girl
to be married off at 18, hence I was married off 8 months ago. I was in high
school but due to personal family problems I failed to commplete my
education. Now I m in Pakistan until my husband gets his Visa. Till then I
would like to get a proper degree so I can enroll in college when I get
back. Can you please sujjest how can I come about to getting my Hight School
diploma. I can have my sister mail my transcripts but other then that I cant
really do anything unless online. WHAT SHOULD I DO ?
Please guide me. Thank you

Hi Robina,

You have many options available to you (including the schools listed on this site). While they will all cost money, there is a vast difference in that cost (so, if that is important, look carefully at each listing).

Now, the following advice is for most students who want to get a high school diploma from the U.S. while living abroad:

1. Make sure that the school is accredited by a regional or national accreditor listed at http://www.chea.org. If you are not sure, come back here and ask. You do not want to earn a high school diploma at a school that is not acceptable to anyone.

2. Choose a program that allows you to submit assignments via email or a website drop box system. You do not want one that requires you to either mail or fax assignments. The first is abysmally slow and the second can get quite expensive.

3. Choose a program that will allow you to transfer in all previous high school credit. You absolutely only want to finish the diploma and not to work on things that you have already done.

4. Let them know that you are presently living in Pakistan (or, for other readers, whichever country you live in). Most online high schools are quite familiar with international students and their requirements. Do not choose a school that views that as a problem.

Do you have additional questions? If you give me more information about your situation (like ability to pay or length of time to be in Pakistan, etc.), I may be able to offer more suggestions.
