Why Online High School for Adults?
Going back to earn a high school diploma for adults takes courage, discipline, and motivation. This is true for adult students because they may have other responsibilities on top of their classes. Many of our students have full-time jobs while also looking after their children. Flexible scheduling is one of the biggest reasons why online schools can be the perfect choice for those returning to school. Flexible online high school programs let you learn on your own time. At USCI, you can finish faster than traditional high school while taking electives that aren’t offered in other high schools so you can focus on subjects you’re passionate about.
Many adults who dropout of high school believe that their only option to complete high school is to get their GED, HiSET, or other equivalency program, but getting a diploma from a DEAC accredited high school has many benefits and is often seen as a better choice for career advancement.

Classes & Curriculum
USCI’s business career pathway is designed to prepare students to continue their education, after receiving their high school diploma, in the business field through certificate or associate degree programs. Upon completion of the high school plus business vocational track a student will be able to use the correct terminology associated with the business and accounting fields. They will also understand and be able to explain the ethical and moral issues that affect business.
Unlike traditional high school, our program lets you devote your focus to one subject matter at a time, allowing you to take the time you need to fully understand and pass the subject before moving onto the next subject.
In addition to the general high school requirements, each student in the business track is required to complete 4 business elective credits as part of their 24 credits to graduate.
Students who receive their diploma through USCI’s DEAC accredited high school, with the business career pathway credits are eligible to transfer those credits towards one of our certificate or degree programs.

Program Reviews
The online high school program is great so far. It is less stressful on my mental health and more manageable for my day to day life. It only takes me less than a few hours total to finish lessons and the work I do online is kinda easy so far. I'm glad I've signed up for this program.

We've gotten fast responses to our questions and the instructors have been proactive in reaching out to us. This is our first semester with U.S. Career Institute and we're looking forward to the rest of Abby's learning experience here.
Will S. Parent/Guardian of High School Student
I have about a million questions before transitioning my teenager from public school to this program and they were AMAZING! The people I was working with were very responsive, answered everything and were so helpful. My daughter started today and I can't wait to see how it goes from here.
Glenna Parent/Guardian of High School Student
I decided to go back to high school after experiencing chronic health issues that prevented me from graduating. Now that I am graduated, I plan to go to my local college to study chemistry. USCI definitely prepared me for my college major with their amazing science classes. I originally enrolled in USCI after I saw an ad on YouTube, I decided it was time to move on to better things. My favorite part about USCI High School student was actually the staff. I had to have emailed them over 50 times and they always loved to help me. What sets USCI apart from other online schools is definitely how much they care about the quality of coursework and their students. I would recommend USCI High School to anyone looking to graduate because you could go at your own pace, while getting a great education. My advice to anyone still in high school or wanting to go back: absolutely go for it. I will be starting college this summer and I would have never done it without USCI!
