Being a high school drop out isn't always bad. You can drop out and go to community college at 16, (some areas you have to be 18), and get your adult high school diploma which is the same thing your friends will get when graduating. You will save two years and be able to work full time until you go to college. It's a great loophole.
Community colleges do accept high school diplomas from an accredited school. I know that because I paid for my daughter's high school education at this nation school and since you mentioned community college, I wanted to tell you that my daughter is studying at community college now she got accepted easily. which college did she get accepted to ?
My high school had a policy that all college credits counted double toward highschool graduation, plus a grade bump. So, getting a B in 1 year of college language classes got me two years of highschool credit and a 4.0 for that class. having extra credit points in high school right before graduation can improve your chance at getting into a good college so keep up the good work and stay in school.
No, you do not need a high school diploma to attend any course at a community college. You do need a high school equivilant such as a GED.
Entrance requirements for community college are either a High School diploma or G.E.D. Certificate. Unusual circumstances could be otherwise, but those situations are very rare.

There are occasions where high school students attend colleges while still in high school. Some institutions have what are called bridge programs. The requirements are particular to the high school as well as the college or university. A student interested in such a program should make as appointment with their high school guidance counselor for the appropriate information.
