I have been in the field of international education for nearly 30 years and have found Smart Schools International to be the most affordable opportunity for international students seeking an online high school diploma. Not only is it the most affordable, but with its international accreditation and flexible asynchronous program, its no surprise that it is recognized around the world as THE leader in distance education.
