Students who struggle with the restrictions of traditional high school education, or who dropped out of school their first time around, now have a golden opportunity to earn their diplomas and put themselves on a path to lasting success. Our fully online program allows us to tailor instruction for students who have difficulty in specific subjects, like math, giving them the time and guidance they need to master important concepts one at a time. The typical USCI student focuses on one or two courses at a time, allowing you to build confidence in your abilities as you grow your knowledge of crucial topics. Whatever your learning style, whatever your schedule, a Connecticut high school education through USCI has the flexibility to meet your ambitions on your terms.
