It takes several business days to process payment, assign an instructor, and add a student into a course, so it is not possible to begin an individually paced course the same date an application is submitted. In addition, a parent/guardian or authorized school official must activate a student’s K12 email account before a student can be enrolled and get started. Typically, students can begin an individually paced writing, math, computer science and technology, and science course approximately two weeks after submitting an application.
