As homeschooling parents, we strive to provide our children with the best education, covering the basics and preparing them for the challenges of higher education.
Meet Jonathan, a 17-year-old homeschooler passionate about learning with a clear vision for his future. Like many homeschool students, Jonathan faced the challenge of finding advanced coursework that matched his academic level and interests. That’s when he discovered BYU Independent Study, a program offering high school and university-level courses in a flexible, online format.
Jonathan embarked on a journey through BYU’s Independent Study offerings, enrolling in Advanced Placement (AP) Biology, Calculus, and English Literature courses. These courses not only provided him with college-level content but also taught him critical time management and self-discipline skills.

This head start allowed him to confidently enter college, ready to tackle his chosen major in biomedical engineering.
