Homeschool Policy

PRBI warmly welcomes homeschoolers; one in five PRBI students is from a homeschooling background!  You should be at least 17 years of age by April 30 of the calendar year for which you are enrolling.  Admission to PRBI is granted on the foundation of a High School diploma or its equivalent. 

We are open to homeschooled students who do not have a diploma but who can fulfill our additional homeschool admissions requirements.  Please see below for the requirements that accompany your specific situation:

1. Government issued transcript students: Completed government issued high school diploma.
2. GED students: Have taken and passed the GED exams in Social Studies and Reading & Writing. A letter of completion will be required along with an Academic Profile*.
3. Semi-traditional homeschooling: Your education has primarily been traditional home-based learning, but you may have taken additional courses through a government high-school or post-secondary institution. We require a letter of completion from your homeschool association, an Academic profile*, and two 2-3 page papers from your grade 12 year (the papers are only required if the student has not completed government courses that were reading/writing based). 
4. Traditional homeschooling: Your education has solely been traditional home-based learning, have received no outside credentials. We require a letter of completion from your homeschool association, an Academic profile*, and two 2-3 page papers from their grade 12 year. 

*Academic profile includes high school course listings (grades 10-12), corresponding grades and the curriculum used.
