Rudner's (1999) study of achievement test results substantiated that commitment, support, and resources bear heavily on successful academic achievement. Galloway (1995) showed that not only on tests of achievement and proficiency, but also in higher education classes, were homeschooled students able to perform as well or better than traditionally educated students. The Ohio Department of Education (1995) found that with the extended support system that homeschooled families have, the skills that homeschooled students developed and utilized made them viable candidates for higher education and academic excellence. Therefore the hypothesis was supported by a variety of researchers that homeschooled students performed as well or better academically as compared to traditional schooled individuals
