Homeschool students must provide a copy of a homeschool agreement approved by the school district or a letter from the local school board or a copy of the letter filed by the parent/legal guardian declaring homeschool for religious exemption. Courses taken as independent dual enrollment shall be transcribed on the student’s college transcript. Students interested in independent dual enrollment may contact the Office of Admissions and Records at (540) 674-3603 or admissions@nr.edu for assistance.
