Texas Homeschool College Application

[almondbutterandjelly]

Texans, please help!

 

I am trying to understand if I need to submit some exemption form or a certification form of some kind, when my dd applies to Tamu-cc next fall.  I thought that homeschools were private schools under state law, and thus it sounds like I might need to provide a certifcation form according to this?  But it also sounds like homeschools may be a different category?  

 

Am I shooting for or eligible for automatic admission?  That also confuses me.  They keep mentioning it.

 

Also, will I need to get my transcript notarized or is me, the principal, signing it at the bottom, enough?

 

Thank you!

 

Here's the link of the page which confuses me:

I have never had one that applied to Tamu-cc, but with four children now accepted to Texas state schools, I have never had to submit an exemption form or certification.

 

As to whether or not you need to get the transcript notarized, it depends on the school. Some require it while others do not. I always called the school (or had my child call).

Thank you, Ladies!  That is extremely helpful!

It looks like they don't get many homeschooled applicants since the test score they're requesting is still based on the old SAT. I'd just call or email and ask what they need.
