Amazing program
I just completed my high school diploma with Excel high school. I did the adult diploma. I love the fact it’s at your own pace. I had an issue and they made it right. A mom of 6 I felt like I didn’t have the time to complete everything. I worked non stop to get it done. Now I’m currently enrolling in college. So happy i came across this school!!!

self paced and has useful tools for math courses
This program is great because it is self paced. Currently I am completing 9th and 10th grade classes so that I can go to the school I want to go to a year early, and this is the only online school that I have found that will help me accomplish these goals in my own time frame. I would recommend this school. Also I thought it would be extremely difficult to complete a math course online, but there are actually a lot of useful tools in the modules to help you understand :)

Amazing team dedicated to seeing you win!
Enrolled for my adult high school diploma and had an amazing experience, the courses are very direct and easy to digest. Although I did study heavily before enrolling, I was able to peace together their course material with my learning as it's pretty straight forward and your typical curriculum.
Staff is there to help you succeed and timely answer any and all inquiries! 10/10
Of course being an online diploma there is going to be lots of reading but they do offer audio listening for all courses and majority of them have extra videos and lectures to help retain a bit better.
Their website does offer a lot of different options in terms of accessibility.
I only rate 4 and not 5 because as someone who has ADHD and Dexlexia, I felt some courses could've been taught a bit better with more in depth reasoning as some courses like math we're very hard for me personally to digest but they followed up with other resources!
If you're more so a visual or auditory learner you will excel with no problem!
If kinetic or mixed, you'll just need a bit more context but can still excel!
Pun intended!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review. Congratulations on pursuing your adult high school diploma — that’s a major accomplishment, and we’re honored you chose Excel High School to be part of your journey.
I truly appreciate your kind words about our staff, accessibility options, and course flexibility. We work hard to ensure students receive timely support and have multiple ways to engage with the material, including audio, video, and structured content pathways. It’s encouraging to hear that those tools supported your success.
I also sincerely appreciate your honest feedback regarding your experience as a student with ADHD and dyslexia. That perspective is extremely valuable. While we aim to design courses that are clear and direct, we recognize that learners process information differently — especially in subjects like math that often require deeper contextual explanation and varied instructional methods. Your feedback helps us continue improving our instructional design to better support visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and mixed learners alike.
Thank you again for your encouragement, your humor (we loved the pun!), and for sharing your experience with future students. We’re proud of your achievement and wish you continued success in everything that comes next.

I highly recomend Excel High School.
For any student seeking to complete high school online. I highly recommend Excel High School. The learn stage, their learning platform, is user friendly and easy to navigate, and feedback from teachers is prompt. And most importantly, you study at your own pace. For adult learners who are probably working, this is crucial.
