Lake Tech accepts high school diplomas from recognized institutions within the United States education system that hold accreditation from a regional, national, or specialized accreditation body. Students, who complete secondary education in a home school setting, are required to submit the Home School Affidavit form which can be obtained in the Admissions Office. Lake Tech also accepts a State of Florida High School Diploma or a General Education Development (GED) credential diploma. The diploma must be recognized by GED Testing in Washington, D.C. Supporting documentation may be required as to diploma type and the institution’s accreditation. The student is responsible for providing this information.
In most programs, qualified new students are accepted several times a year on a space-available basis. These start dates are set forth in the calendar located in the school catalog. Eligible high school students may enroll at the beginning of the first, second, and third nine week periods and must be referred by their home high school.
