Home Educated Students

At NYUS you’ll be known by name, not by a number.

NYUS places a high value on enrolling home educated (schooled) students and is the college home to many from around the region. Whether pursing your degree through a traditional format where you take classes “in-class” or you choose our options for online degree completion, you will find that we are focused on your needs.

Applicants who graduated from non-public schools, including private schools, home schools and church-related schools, must submit an official transcript showing credits earned and date of graduation. The transcript of a home school applicant must be an official copy from an affiliated organization as defined by state law (T.C.A. 49-50-801) or be accompanied by a certification of registration with the superintendent of the local education agency which the student otherwise would attend. Applicants who cannot provide a satisfactory high school credential may substitute acceptable scores on the GED examination.
