Worst Online School Ever
Did not reporr to NCAA as they stated. Did not give my daughter credit for assignments.
After nagging them they just gave her some grades which were incorrect.
I wasted a lot of time and money. Screenshot your stuff because they lie.
Run from this high school , watch your credit card and more
My daughter finished her senior year and completed everything with national high school by June . She was already move to th dorm in college last week August 2017 after we talk with the beginning of June when she was done .
We pay for her diploma and talk with the only persons answer the phone there ands he say everything was fine and diploma and transcripts was ready to send and my daughter move to college the same day we move her like they already know it , they send me a email saying she didn't pass a class and she can't be a graduate high school .

THE WORST
I would hate for anyone to have to go through this. If you are considering national high school- DONT!!
They never call back. The problem is always YOUR fault.
They don't keep track of anything and I've had to do things over many many times. Not worth it.
Scammers!! Liars!!!!
I so agree with you... email them you get no response back...
call them you get the run around and my son SSC Ms Davis should be fired because she is useless they always apologizing with no results.. my son suppose to graduate in May but because of national high school delay he has to graduate late July.. my son was heart broken he wasn't able to walk with his class.. All please stay away because in the end your child will be hurt and filled with disappointment...
they lose assignments, takw forever to grade it.. they say they will grade it up to 10 business days lies lies lies...
some assignment took over a month before they graded it.. I want to sue them there handbook said one thing and they did the total opposite
The Worst School in America
I don't have the time to type all the discrepancies that this school has done. 1.
They do not reply or communicate 2. They lose assignments 3. They do not keep up with virtual classes 4. Needed my daughter's grades for NCAA purposes and its been 3 months since completion and they still haven't turned stuff in.
They were consistant with taking my money out of my account, but have caused my daughter to miss out on scholarship opportunities because they will not return calls or turn required items in to NCAA.
They are also flagged by NCAA, and now I see why. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!
- Worst experience
National High School - Customer Care Review
RUN as fast as you can from this "school". My son did "orientation" and was promised that we are emailing your parents right now your login info...5 days later...NO EMAIL.
That was enough for me. I found a different school for my son to go to instead. Calls and emails have went unanswered and when someone DID call me back she HAD NO CLUE about the emails and phone messages I and my son had left. Quick clear way to get your money back if you have already paid, call your bank.
I HIGHLY doubt there is actual instruction at this "school", and you have to "sign up" for classes...if the class you need to take is full...sorry so sorry you are out of luck.
It seems like they just want your money, because we would have almost in month 2 WITHOUT my son taking an class because he had no log in. Stay far far away!!
National High School - Course Review
THIS SCHOOL IS A SCAM!!!!!! Please stay away from them!
All they want is your money!! My daughter needed .5 of a credit in foreign language so we decided to sign up with this school, HUGE MISTAKE!! After she worked for 5 months and submitted all assignment I saw her do them and never did she receive a grade lower than an 85. When it was time to grade her exam they send an email stating she didn't turn it in right and she will get a 60 for the course.
I payed over $1000.00 for this!!! Now my daughter will have to graduate with a certificate of attendance because of these SCAM artists!!!! I will be trying to get a lawsuit against them!!!
They should be taken out!!!! It's not right that that can mess with our children's future!!!!!!!
Short Review on October&nbs-04:00;12,&nbs-04:00;2016
Each of your respinses to the customer's review is rude. I glad I read them Im going to let your rude resonse deter me fore sure.
My daughter dies not need a nightmare, she doesnt have time. Thanks but NO Thanks!
Worst online school experience possible.
To sum everything up in one sentence. Never use this school.
A man named mack foster, who has been called out by name in several other reviews. Is the only person you can ever talk to, he will refuse to let you speak to any superiors, or anyone at all that isnt him. He takes 3-4 days to respond to any emails or voicemails. When you finally do hear from him he is blatantly rude, not like passive aggressive rude but he is legitimately mean to any parents or students he talks to, and blames all issues of his or the schools on you.
The grading process takes weeks for one single assignment, and that often forces you to pay for more months that you don't need to.
I personally have been waiting over a month to get my transcript so I can find another school, and every interaction with Mack takes at least ten days for him to respond. Beginning to think this is a scam and I will never get my transcript.
This is the rudest place ever!
My son never submitted any work and ended up not needing to take the classes and this rude man that goes by the name Mr. Foster will not refund my $850.00 and refuses to let me speak to anybody higher than him!
I am pissed! This company has the worst customer service! This why they can never keep their employees and every week there is someone new working there! This place does not exist to help the children.
The tutorials are about 30 minutes and the children are basically teaching themselves! I am so glad we did not need a diploma from them!
Preferred solution: Full refund
Summer School - Need Advice
So, I am struggling to find an online summer school. I am from Idaho, in the United States. I had a strange feeling about National High School since the first voicemail they (Sean Reed - Advisor) left me. He had sounded as if he was from India, but the call came from Georgia. It was hard to understand. After I listened to the voicemail, I sent National High School an email, explaining a few things:
1. When I requested info. I merely wanted some answers first, not necessarily to enroll right away.
2. Being from Idaho, I am in a totally different time zone, as I am two hours behind. So when I get a call at 7 AM, I won't answer; I also am still in school and cannot accept calls until after noon.
3. Therefore, it is much easier to communicate via email, although, I am available to speak over the phone AFTER noon.
I still have not been able to contact them over the phone being they call me too early or too late, without a message. They have ignored my emails and simple requests. They are telling me that one semester class w/ them is $250, as a yearlong class is $499. To me, that cash doesn't come easy. When I see them being accused of fraud and such on here, it scares me.
Am I wrong? Does anyone have anything good to say about their experience with National High School?
Wouldn't trust this school
After reading everyone's reviews of this school, I am glad I didn't register with them! My gut feeling was that they were a scam due to two reasons:
A) their grammar stinks in the emails I have received from them. You can tell they are foreign because of the run on sentences and many times don't use the correct endings. Their emails screamed "foreigner"!
B) I submitted a request for information online at 9:30 pm on a weeknight. 20 minutes later at 9:50pm, a man called me to talk to me about their school!! I was appalled someone would call that late at night, and the call came from GA, which is in the same time zone as me! Since the, they have called several times a day and I cannot talk on the phone during the day. I only wanted information via email, but they kept calling excessively! I am so annoyed that they cannot respect "do not call!"
C) They gave very little information about their classes, curriculum, and how the format of the class works. But they did give me information on the cost!!
So after my gut feeling told me "no" I read these reviews and feel better I didn't do it!
National High School is a Scam
I agree with previous reviews. I watched my student submit requests to enroll in courses and get denied.
Staff will blame any technical difficulty on the child.
They are not helpful and staff turnover results in different stories and advise each time you attempt to get help.
Extremely unsatisfactory, cost much more money than you think it will. Do not enroll your student in this program.I spent nearly $800, my child was diligent and very responsible about doing work, received A's on all their work and we ended up having to pay for 3 extra months due to "technical difficulties" and errors they blamed on my student.
Universities, Colleges and Schools Expert Talks
Bogus HS diploma
My son took their testing in 2011 and passed. We didn't have the money to pay for the paperwork until 2013.
He received a diploma and transcript. Well all jobs he applied for they did not accept it as valid. Spent hours talking to people online and on phone with them. Supposedly they give accreditation letter afterwards but finally got someone to tell me that it has to be 'legalized' and 'registered' with the state for a cost of $215 since he was a graduate of this school.
Seriously? more money? I tried several times to talk to people and as soon as it came to this info, they hung up on me - live chat or on the phone. The people spoke to were foreign voiced with a half decent command of English but still hard to understand.
And one told me they were in CA. Yet I went online to pose for a diploma and they called me from a local area code?? WTH??So guess we have to get a GED from our state knowing it is truly valid and accepted with employers. He had told me he had to pay $215 more to make this diploma legalized???
WTH???
Yeah it squeaks of scam all the way.
National High School SCAM !! FRAUD!!
Also to add they say they are A SAC\'S accredited school. BUT when I was speaking to the supposed dean of the school \"Michelle Robinson\" She said that they didn\'t know if they could credit my daughters work and we live in TEXAS .
DOESNT EVEN MAKE SENSE !!! Also some of the other names they go under is \" James Brown, McAnthony Foster\" On top of that when we were going through all of this. We asked to speak to the guy \"Micheal Swarzak \" who signed us up and told us all the lies to begin with that this school was just like connections academy and etc . Then is when this lady \"Sheila\" picks up his phone and tells us he quit and that she is one of the directors of the school .
She explains to my daughter that everything is going to be alright , so we told the supposed \" Tim Bloore\" and he tells us that this Sheila is not a director but a student admin!! EVERYWHERE IS LIES AND LIES IN THIS SCHOOL THEY ARE A BIG SCAM HUNTING FOR MONEY IN THE U.S..
There is a home schooling program out there called National High School . Please don't pay and send your children there.
My daughter was in that school for 7 months trying to turn in her work and finishing school work. But THEN every time she tried turning in her work they would quickly erase it from her assignment checklist . Then write to me and say that she hasn't done any of her work and that we need to pay money for the next month! So one day I sat with my daughter and watched her do her work and submit it in.
After witnessing it before MY VERY OWN EYES I called her student coordinator "Tim Bloore"(One of the many names these people use). When I spoke with him the next morning he tells me that she hasn't turned any work in and that we are due for our next payment!!! I WAS UNBELIEVABLELY FURIOUS AS TO THE LIES HE WAS SAYING! After I with my own two eyes saw her turning it .
This school is a big scam and fraud based out of another country over seas. They have a few people working there who go by many names like "Michelle Robinson, Sheila, Tim Bloore, Micheal Swarzak, Hamidah Ghaswala, Ms. Mohammed" . The supposed director of the school "Sheila" Told my daughter to talk the school dean who was a woman named "Michelle Robinson" .
After my daughter talked to her and explained what was happening with the assignments. She called me back saying all these lies when I clearly was there listening to my daughter talking on the phone.
The fact is this school has a few people working there under various names based in another country out of the U.S. PLEASE STAY AWAY THEY ARE A SCAM !!!

I would be more willing to accept what you say if you could write properly. It is very hard to follow your submission.
I agree with everything you stated and have had a very similar experience. They misrepresent who they are and what they do and have no communication at all (and that is the tip of the iceberg).
They have done possible irreparable academic damage to my son's record. They are going to hear from us as well.
