We understand that life gets busy! Which is why we offer daytime and evening classes, Independent Study and online courses. To earn a high school diploma from YAS, you must successfully complete a total of 185 credits in various subjects. You may even be eligible to earn credits for work experience. Our counselor will go over the requirements with you. Please bring a copy of your high school transcript if you have one. If not, we will request a copy after you’ve filled out a Request Authorization Form. Note: the High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) is NO LONGER a requirement.
(Students must be 18 years or older and may register throughout the school year.)

NATIONAL EXTERNAL DIPLOMA PROGRAM (NEDP)
Cost: FREE
The National External Diploma Program (NEDP) does not count credits nor test scores. Instead you will use the skills you’ve gained from life and work experience to demonstrate your reading and math high school level skills. You will work though online activities and with an assessor to complete your program. And will have multiple opportunities to demonstrate your mastery of academic skills in core subject areas. It's possible that it can be completed in 6-12 months.
(Students must be 18 years or older, must score at high school level on assessment and may register throughout the school year.)
