About U.S. Career Institute

A Real Diploma, Plus a Head Start on a Career At U.S. Career Institute, your student earns an accredited online high school diploma and gets a real jump on a career at the same time. It's a flexible, supported path, and they learn at their own pace, 100% online. Our 24 credit program includes core classes, electives, and optional career pathways in healthcare, business, veterinary, fitness, and paralegal. Those career pathways are what set us apart. They carry directly into USCI's certificate programs, so your student can keep going toward a national career credential in fields like Medical Assistant, Pharmacy Technician, Dental Assistant, Medical Coding & Billing, and Phlebotomy. Here's how the career piece works: seniors, or any student who has earned 18 or more credits, can enroll in the certificate courses, and those courses can be paid for with EFA funds. Even better, when your student takes the career pathway classes in high school, some of that coursework counts toward the matching career certificate, so they finish sooner and graduate already moving toward a credential. You can also transfer in prior high school credits. We're DEAC and MSA-CESS accredited with open enrollment, so your student can start whenever they're ready. Set your student up to graduate with confidence and a clear path toward a career they'll love.
