Missouri Online High School Diploma Program

For a growing number of US learners, in-class high school just isn’t an option. U.S. Career Institute is proud to offer Missouri Students an alternative: a fully accredited, fully online high school curriculum that lets you earn an accredited diploma in your own time, on your own terms. Online education is perfect for students who struggle in classroom settings, for adult learners hoping to go back and earn their high school diplomas, and for homeschooling families looking for a rigorous, nationally recognized education for their high school students.

Who We Serve

U.S. Career Institute  Teen Students

Missouri Online High School for Teens
9+ Months • $49/month

Missouri high schools do their best, but the old in-person model of education just can’t meet everyone’s needs. Some students benefit from working at their own pace, in their own at-home environment, with the flexible curriculum and proven support that only online instruction can provide. That’s the vision that inspired us to create U.S. Career Institute’s fully accredited Online High School.

U.S. Career Institute  adult learners

Missouri Online High School for Adults
9+ Months • $49/month

With so many Missourians earning their high school diplomas, adult learners here are too often tempted to take their GED tests and move on. But a full high school diploma simply means more on the job market—Missouri adults who have earned their high school diplomas make an average of $6,302* more per year than those who have not.

USCI Homeschool

Missouri Online Homeschool
9+ Months • $49/month

Homeschooling younger students can be a challenge. Delivering an entire high school curriculum, with its greater range of subjects and greater depth of coverage, is nearly impossible for most of us. U.S. Career Institute built its high school curriculum around Colorado’s state education standards, which means that your homeschooled high schooler will master the same core concepts as students across Missouri and around the country. And they’ll earn a fully accredited diploma that has the respect of employers and colleges alike.

Why Get a High School Diploma Online in Missouri?

A high school education is more than just a sign of accomplishment in Missouri: it’s an important step toward a solid career and a happy life. Missouri’s 90% high school graduation rate* is well above the national average, meaning that you’ll need a diploma to stay competitive in the local job market. That’s true for traditional high schoolers and home-schooled students, and it’s especially true for adult learners who are thinking of returning to school. If that sounds like you or your child, U.S. Career Institute is ready to help.

With a fully accredited, fully online curriculum, our students receive tailored instruction on the subjects that matter most, like math and language arts. When U.S. Career Institute students need a bit of extra support, or an exciting new challenge to keep them engaged, they get just that. Students take one or two courses at a time, allowing them to master important concepts before moving on, building their confidence as they build their knowledge. When the forced pace of in-class instruction just doesn’t work, U.S. Career Institute allows you to move at your speed, on your schedule, in the environment that best supports your learning style.

Required High School Courses & Classes

Because we follow established state education standards, the U.S. Career Institute curriculum delivers an excellent education centered around core subjects like math, language arts, and the sciences.
