Earn Your Adult High School Diploma in Florida — Not a GED®

Adult high school diploma programs in Florida offer more than just a second chance—they offer a new beginning. If you’re 16 or older and never completed high school, American High School Academy (AHSA) provides the opportunity to earn a real high school diploma, not a GED®, with flexible options tailored to your life.

Since 2003, over 10,000 students have graduated from AHSA and moved on to college, military service, technical programs, or better careers. Unlike many online or GED programs, AHSA is Cognia®-accredited, and trusted by families and professionals across Florida.

Why a Real High School Diploma Is Better Than a GED®

Many adults think the GED® is their only option—but that’s not the full story. A GED® is a high school equivalency certificate, not a diploma. While it may be enough for some entry-level jobs, it can limit your options when it comes to military service, college admissions, and many career fields.

In contrast, an adult high school diploma from AHSA is a recognized credential that carries the same weight as any traditional diploma.

Benefits of a real diploma:

• Regionally Accredited School –  Cognia Accreditation— through our regional accrediting agencies, SACS CASI, NCA CASI, and NWAC—is globally recognized 

• Accepted by all U.S. colleges and universities

• Meets military enlistment requirements

• Preferred by employers over a GED®

• Provides full eligibility for technical training programs

• Boosts confidence and personal achievement

Compare Your Options: Adult High School Diploma vs. GED®

When comparing programs, it’s important to understand the differences. Below is a side-by-side breakdown of AHSA’s diploma program versus the typical GED® route.
