Enough already? Colleges don’t care about STAAR and neither should you.

As a private school, we can get you a diploma, the key for college, without wasting time on STAAR.

  • Step One:

    Enroll in our capstone mini-course and be automatically accepted into Open World Academy.

    This mini-course will point you how towards free online curriculum to beef up those academic skills that colleges are actually looking for, show you how to get free money for college, and coach you through the simple process of accessing a college education.

  • Step Two:

    Transfer your credits to Open World Academy.

    We’ll give you a form to fill out so that requesting a transcript from your old school is easy.

  • Step Three:

    Graduate.

    After you’ve finished the mini-course and we’ve verified your transcript, we’ll mail your diploma so you can go to college or wherever you determine.

A message from the founder of Open World Academy:
Too many Texas seniors successfully finished their high school classes but are denied a diploma due to low STAAR scores. 
This isn’t a problem for rich kids.
STAAR only impacts students in the public school system. Private schools are not even required to give STAAR tests, muchless demand a certain score.

At age five, you started this journey towards a diploma. You’ve shown up and done the hard work.
If you’ve passed all your classes, and STAAR scores are what’s preventing your graduation,
then Open World Academy designed our Enough Already™ program just for you.

Grab the diploma you’ve already earned.
Go anywhere.

Pay $150 now. Pay a $150 later.

If you know you have 22 credits and want to start our Enough Already™ program, so that you can start paving your way into a Texas college, then just click the enroll button.

Before you graduate, you’ll still need to get us an official copy of your transcripts, and we’ll need to verify your ID.

FAQs

  • Students already have expensive options.

    If you were rich parents, you’d in roll you in a fancy $15,000 a year private school that also waste time on STAAR. For about $1000, students could find an online high school to basically do what we’re doing.

    We were founded by a Texas teacher who sees a need for for a low-cost option for certain students.

    You’ve already done all the hard work. There isn’t too much we have to do on this end: a bit of office work, coach your mini-course, verify your transcript, and issuing a diploma.

    We aim to not let cost be a barrier to getting a high school diploma.

  • Yes, our diploma is a key that opens the doors for college in Texas.

    We are a nontraditional high school whose diploma has its legitimacy affirmed by laws of the State of Texas.

    In the words of the Texas Commissioner of Higher Education:
    “[Texas Education Code] requires institutions of higher education to apply the same undergraduate admissions standards for an applicant who has successfully completed a nontraditional secondary education as a student who graduated from a public high school. It further prohibits institutions of higher education from requiring applicants who have completed a nontraditional secondary education to submit evidence or comply with any other requirements that are generally not required of other applicants for undergraduate admission to the institution. “

    You will be encouraged to apply to a community college as part of your mini-course. We would love it if every one of our graduates applied for free money for college and at least got accepted into a college.

    Whether you plan on going right away, you’ll know the process and you’ll have the confidence that your diploma is the key to new doors.

    Our diploma is more than legit: It comes from a high-minded academy that is rooted in high academic standards.

    Our Enough Already seems easy because two things make it so:
    1. You’ve already earned enough credits to graduate.
    2. Private schools are free from any STAAR regulations.

  • We designed our Enough Already for students who’ve earned enough credits but are held up from graduating because of low STAAR scores.

    If you haven’t earned enough credits, go over to our homepage and learn about earning more high school credits.

    Our student-centered model offers control, flexibility, and low-cost.

    We’d love for you to choose us to fill any gaps.
