Hello there.homeschool-placer Parents in Michigan get to determine when their homeschooled student will graduate and proceed to issue a diploma upon graduation. Homeschoolers in Michigan are not required by law to undertake any examination to graduate. Parents in Michigan are at liberty to include what they deem pertinent to military, future workplace organizations and colleges in creating their students transcripts. Homeschooled students meet graduation requirements upon determination by the parent. A parent may choose to assign credits to individual courses undertaken in the course of the homeschooling session. You probably may want to have a look at the following page which contains specific information on Michigan homeschool laws and regulations:

The Michigan Merit Curriculum guideline provides you with information on graduation, and as a parent you can choose to follow that. If your student is considering college, looking at the recommendations for a school your student chooses is a good idea so that you may align your homeschool goals with those.

Homeschooled students in Michigan meet graduation requirement upon determination by the parent. As a matter of law, compulsory attendance of a student until the age of 17 is required in Michigan and after that, parents are at liberty to determine the criteria for when the high schooler will receive a diploma.
