Not many..You are better off going back to school..a community college will accept that for admission. But that's how far it goes.

I would advise you to enroll in a community college to take a couple of classes there to get some technical skills for a job.

While enrolled there, you can apply for work study.

And you can always apply for low skilled jobs that don't require a degree.

The way America is, if you don't go back to school ,you will end up doing jobs that requires intense physical labor. You can be done with an associate degree in 2 yrs or less.

Good luck to you!

Most employers won't ask to see high school diplomas. They usually don't even ask for your college graduation certificate, unless applying for a job where a specific degree is a must. I wouldn't worry about your high school diploma
