One of the increasingly popular means of educating student outside the public school system includes home schooling. Advocates of this method of education prefer often point out the many benefits of home schooling including better one-on-one education, less distractions and more student oriented training. One obstacle home schooled children face however, occurs when they begin pursuing enrollment at colleges and universities. Issue arise due to the lack of traditional school transcripts and an actual high school diploma. Many students bypass this obstacle by getting their General Education Diploma (GED).
