Colleges with Homeschool Admission Policies Online

This page is as much for homeschoolers to find admissions policies as it is for those college admissions officers who are trying to develop such a policy for their universities. This page does not represent all colleges with policies online. My intention is to give enough samples so that all may see what sort of policies are in place.

About

Developing Homeschool Admission Policies
The Ontario Federation of Teaching Parents (OFTP) initiated the University Project in order to study the present situation with regard to access of home educated students to colleges and universities and address any admissions issues that arise.
