How do Homeschoolers Fare in College?
INFORMATIVE
Tags: homeschooling, college, students, kids, home, school
Several studies have lead to the following conclusions about homeschooling performance in higher education:
| | Current evidence indicates that homeschoolers' college academic performance is comparable to that of traditionally educated students. |
| | Oliveira's study (as cited in Galloway, 1995) found no significant differences in critical thinking skills among college freshmen who had graduated from different types of high schools, including home schools, public schools, conventional Christian schools, and accelerated Christian education schools (Galloway, 1995). |
| | Sutton and Galloway (2000) also investigated the undergraduate success of college graduates from home schools, private schools, and public schools nationwide. |
| | They used 40 indicators of college success that reflected five domains of learning outcomes-achievement, leadership, professional aptitude, physical activity, and social behavior. |
| | They concluded that, overall the students from all settings received equivalent educations. |
