<p>If a student with excellent SAT and several AP test with 4s and 5s graduates from an accredited online high school, can they still get in to Yale or other Ivy? Anyone with experiences related to online high school?</p>

<p>Just as with “regular” high school students, I think it depends on a lot of things, such as what your interests are, your character and so on. The online high school is fine, especially with the results you have gotten w/testing.</p>

<p>There’s no reason why it should automatically disqualify you. In fact, it might help you stand out from the crowd of other applicants. I’m sure doing online high school has led you to have a different life from most high school students, so you should have plenty of good fodder for your essay.</p>
