How to apply as a homeschool student

Below are the admission requirements for homeschool students.

Homeschool High School Requirements

As a general rule, the following subjects are required for completion of a high school diploma. When compiling your student’s high school transcript, you should always refer to your state’s requirements.  

  • 4 Years of English 
  • 3 Years of Math
  • 2 Years of History
  • 2 Years of Science
  • Foreign Language is encouraged but not required for admittance to TMU. 

Homeschool Transcripts

  • An official transcript is one that is sent directly from the issuing school and is signed by the registrar and/or administrator.  
  • Transcripts should include each class from 9th through 12th grade, with a letter grade assigned to each class. 
  • The transcript must use a credit system to calculate GPA. 
  • The transcript must be current through the date of applying. 
  • Final transcripts must include the graduation date (for undergraduate admissions). 

If the transcript is produced by the parent, then 1) a parental signature is required along with 2) the date of signing. Please include only the last four digits of the student’s social security number on the transcript. Transcripts must be emailed or sent to TMU by the parent, not the student. 

The GED or California Proficiency Exam are accepted in absence of a final transcript. 

Transcripts must be requested from the current or most recent school. Transcripts may be emailed to  or mailed directly to:
