Title: Excell high school fake or not fake
Post by: viocjit on January 28, 2019, 10:56:21 PM
I want infos about "Excel High School" ( http://www.excelhighschool.com/  ) who say it's a legitimate school that deliver "High School Diploma" over Internet.

I'm sceptical about this statement because I don't think we can get a legit diploma from Internet.
I think it's a rogue school. Am I right ?

They say there are accredited by the non-profit , non-governmental organization AdvancED ( http://www.advanc-ed.org/oasis2/u/par/accreditation/summary?institutionId=25182 ) and that is true.
This High School is listed as a non-public school in a website of Minnesota Department of Education under the tag 0284-31-022 : http://w20.education.state.mn.us/MdeOrgView/organization/show/14842

You can read there some of their claims : https://www.excelhighschool.com/accreditation.php

It's weird but this school or pseudo-school is registered in the University of California a-g course program : https://hs-articulation.ucop.edu/agcourselist/institution/5060

Is this a mill diploma like I think ?

No personal experience so can't give any valid feedback unfortunately. Have you found anything negative on Google.
