Dual Enrollment
Georgia homeschool students can participate in dual enrollment programs at local colleges and technical schools through the state's Dual Enrollment program. This is a fantastic option for high schoolers who want to earn college credit while still homeschooling. Courses are tuition-free for eligible students, and the credits transfer to most Georgia colleges and universities. Contact your local college's admissions office for specific requirements and available courses.
Extracurricular Access
The Dexter Mosely Act (Senate Bill 42), signed in 2021, allows home study students in grades 6 through 12 to participate in extracurricular and interscholastic activities at their resident public school. To qualify, you must notify the school principal and district at least 30 days before the semester, enroll in at least one qualifying course, provide your most recent progress assessment, and meet the same eligibility rules as enrolled students.
