Yes.  Students are required to give 50 hours each year to the Community.  We have even develpoed a program for the Middle School to implement.  We are currently having them give 10 hours but, it was so successful we are increasing it to 25 hours!

Yes you can get your High School diploma from Military school. The cost varies from school to school. Some are part of the public school system, but not many.

If you didn't come from a college prep high school a bigger university may just wash you out.  Many bigger schools have a 70% drop out rate.  You may need the time in community college just to get up to speed if your high school did not prepare you.  It is not about the school, it is about you.

My high school didn't require previous community service hours for acceptance into NHS, but it looked good on the application.  We did have to complete at least 20 hours for the school year to maintain membership, however.  (As a side note, I went to a high school that is currently ranked in the top 5 high schools in the US.  My school, like yours, was extremely competitive in everything from academics to sports, uhm, excluding our 76-3 loss in football.) \n\nDo a google search for "high school national honor society" and see what other schools recommend for applicants.  By the time of graduation, most of my school's graduates had at least 150 hours during their 4 years, some had well over 500.  My friends and I had between 20-50 recorded hours when we were accepted.\n\nAlso, find out from other students in NHS how competitive acceptance is.  Some schools induct just about everyone who makes the GPA cut.

No,you have to be 18 or prove that you Can take care of yourself. Graduating does nothing for you besides helping you get a job to support yourself.

My suggestio is to go to find a community college. Community colleges don not require ACT's or SAT's and for the most part all you need is a high school diploma. Even if you were to take the tests now, you would have needed excelent grades in high school to get into a state school, or university. you'd be competing with many high school seniors who have been successful the last 12 years of their lives.

When I went to high school in Ohio, it was possible to enroll at the community college (in this case Lakeland Community College in Kirtland) during you junior and senior years to take both high school and college credit.  It was called the post secondary program.  You may want to check with your guidance counselor or your local community college for information.

It depends on what you need it for. For admittance to the University System in Germany, this is true. Not even some years at a US college are enough. You have to go through the certification process of the particular region for this. \nIt is true, that the US diploma from high school is not the same because Germany has several systems for public education. \n\nI have never heard of people having to go 'back to school' but I have heard of people having to take qualifying examinations for University admissions.\nSee: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_school_system

High School Diploma, you can do it. Don't think negative always have a positive attitude and you will come out on top. Finishing High School is something you will only get to do once and it's a great memory.

Call or e-mail your high school to obtain the record of your graduation.  I doubt that they will have an official diploma as it should have been given to you upon graduation.
