Wheaton College Homeschool Page Homeschool Wheaton College has enrolled quite a few home schooled students in recent years. Nearly ten percent of our current freshmen were home schooled at some point, and about a dozen were home schooled through high school. We encourage home schooled students to consider Wheaton if they see themselves as a good fit - that is, if they are passionate about their Christian commitment and academic excellence.
Most colleges require a teacher's recommendation.
In most home schools, the teacher is a parent. This will vary from school to school. If a college has not previously received applications from home schoolers, it may be tentative in its response. The more familiar it becomes with home schooling, the less tentative it tends to be. At Wheaton, we seek students who are not only passionate about learning, but are also passionate about their Christian faith.
