After you are accepted at the American School, you can earn your accredited diploma faster than you ever thought possible--up to twice as fast as classroom high schools--by choosing from two distinct diploma programs, both of which consist of 18 units of credit from our innovative curriculum. In total, the American School offers more than 70 courses, many of which are available in print or online formats. If you are planning on attending college, consider our College Preparatory program. Students complete 15 required courses and may take art courses, foreign languages courses or courses such as Business Law and Journalism as their three electives. More information on the College Preparatory program, including a list of required courses, can be found at www.americanschoolofcorr.com/collegeprep. If you are planning on going into the workforce immediately after graduation, consider our General High School program. Students complete 13 required courses and may take trade courses, such as Carpentry or Automotive Repair, or life skills courses, such as Food Study and Home Planning and Decorating as their five electives. More information on the General High School program, including a list of required courses, can be found at www.americanschoolofcorr.com/generalhighschool.
The American School's status as a non-profit school allows us to keep costs to an absolute minimum. A full 18-unit diploma program consisting entirely of print courses, including all study materials and grading of exams, costs just $1599, and flexible monthly payment plans are available. Prices for online courses or for students residing in a foreign country are slightly higher. In addition, the American School offers free evaluations of transcripts from United States high schools and offers pro-rated prices if you need fewer than 18 units of credit to earn your high school diploma. If you desire to take American School courses to enrich an existing homeschool program, you can do that, too. The cost of individual courses usually runs between $150 and $200. Recently, the American School launched a new service by becoming an affiliate of Method Test Prep, a company that has specialized in online preparation for the ACT or SAT for more than a decade. Under this arrangement, Method Test Prep is responsible for all course content and billing, their customer service team answers any and all questions from American School students and for others who enroll in their courses through the American School's Web site, and Method Test Prep's courses do not count toward an American School student's diploma requirements. For more information on becoming an American School student, call 866-260-7221 around the clock, or visit www.americanschoolofcorr.com/enroll if you are ready to enroll today. We look forward to helping you earn your high school diploma the American way! American School of Correspondence

The American School,
Students work entirely at their own pace, but
they are never alone. The American School tries to make distance learning as
personal as possible. For example, our instructors write personalized,
handwritten comments when they grade exams in print courses, and our staff is
available during normal business hours to answer telephone and e-mail inquiries.
The dedication of our staff is one reason why the American School is accredited
by the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School
Improvement/AdvancED and recognized by the State of Illinois as a non-public
high school.
