From a student
I've been attending this school for three years now, and the staff has been nothing but helpful whenever I've asked questions. They are also very efficient with their work. Their administration is super fast. I have loved every year it has been here at Excel

Excel High School review (hs senior)
It actually wasn't bad I just paid for my work and I'm currently waiting on my diploma. I did the regular program it was $1950 and I only did one year with them just transfer your credits and you're good. I had 7 classes to take and finished it in 5 months. I only did one year with them which is my senior year so I don't know about anything else, but I assume its really good.

Thank you for sharing your experience with Excel High School! We’re glad to hear that the credit transfer process worked smoothly for you and that you were able to complete your remaining courses at a pace that fit your goals.
It’s great to know that the regular program supported you through your senior year and helped you finish your classes within your desired timeframe. We appreciate your feedback and your thoughtful perspective, and we wish you all the best as you receive your diploma and move on to your next steps. Congratulations on completing your program!

The courses were good but the site is horrible.
I liked the programme but the site wasn't super user-friendly or pleasing to the eye. Also, one of the courses I took had an extra assignment that didn't actually exist. Overall it was easy and helped me finish my American high-school diploma but the site really needs to be redesigned and the courses should be looked over for any mistakes like the one I ran into.

Thanks for taking the time to share this feedback — it’s genuinely helpful.
We are glad to hear the coursework and program helped you finish your American high school diploma, but I’m sorry the platform experience fell short. We understand how frustrating it is when a site isn’t intuitive or visually easy to navigate, and we agree that the learning experience should feel seamless and modern.
We are also concerned about the course issue you mentioned. An assignment showing as required when it doesn’t actually exist is not acceptable, and we appreciate you flagging it. We regularly review and update courses, and comments like yours help us identify items that need immediate correction.
If you’re willing, we’d like to look into the specific course and fix the error. Please reach out to our support team with your name/email used for enrollment and the course title (or course code), and we’ll escalate it for review right away. There is a reporting feature on each page in every course to report errors.
Thank you again for your honesty and for choosing Excel High School. Your feedback helps us improve, and we’re committed to strengthening both our platform and course quality.

My high school diploma experience
My high school diploma experience was challenging but important. At first, I struggled with motivation and some subjects, but over time I learned to work harder and take responsibility for my studies. High school helped me grow, gain confidence, and think more seriously about my future. Earning my diploma was a meaningful achievement for me.

Overall I highly recommend it!
I highly recommend the adult high school diploma program. Can be completed in less than 1 year if you work hard, maybe even less than 6 months. I procrastinated like crazy and it took me 2 years. You can transfer in your credits from another school but I didn't do that, wanted to start fresh.
I wish I knew about Excel High School when I was younger. Not to give you a sob story but I was bullied a lot in school and had some mental health issues, so I ultimately dropped out and got my GED, but if I knew about Excel High School back then, I DEFINITELY would have chosen their program.
You learn at your own pace, even doing one class at a time if you want. It's not absolutely perfect, for instance the support from teachers is pretty minimal and the web app is still not super smooth. But I can tell they're working on it. It improved a lot in just the past 2 years. There were certainly some inconveniences, technical issues, or frustrations with teachers that took 1 star off this review... But it's a solid 4 stars!
Overall, highly recommend.
Give it a try, for sure, especially if you're an adult, feeling any kind of guilt or disappointment about not finishing high school as a teenager.

I learned and memorized sign language and successfully completed the course for a language class.
I was able to contact people for the high school, and they helped me when I was a bit confused or stuck. I found that ASL could be something I could be real good at, and I could do another course if I wanted to no problem.

the best alternative
I truly enjoyed the no pressure work as you go experience. i enjoyed the classes where the videos were actually narrated by teachers the most. i had some issues with the classes that were just a voice- with no personality. I found everyone very helpful and was quickly put at ease. Im glad I took the chance.

So Happy!
I am so grateful for the opportunity to graduate through Excel High School’s adult program. For the first time in a long time, I feel truly accomplished and proud of myself. The program was excellent—everything I needed was clearly provided, easy to access, and designed to help me succeed. I had such a positive experience that my husband is planning to start the program soon as well. I’m thankful for Excel High School for making this possible.

Excel High School was an excellent experience. The program was flexible and easy to follow, and the staff always responded quickly when I needed help. After I graduated, they sent my transcripts immediately, which allowed me to forward everything to my college right away. Because of that, I’m officially starting college next month. I highly recommend EHS to anyone needing a real, accredited online high school.
