You earn a dual diploma when you complete high school in your home country and earn six credits with a U.S. high school. Take six online classes with our academic delivery partner to get the six credits you need while attending high school at home. When you graduate, you’ll be awarded two diplomas.
You can earn six online credits over one, two, or three years. Opt to study during the academic year or the summer break. Classes are asynchronous, so you can start when you want to and learn at the right pace for you. Of course, you’ll still interact with teachers and classmates, so look forward to live sessions twice a month.
Some of the classes you take are mandatory, including US History and English. But you will also choose electives, classes in fascinating topics that aren’t available at most high schools. Deepening your knowledge in subjects that interest you will be fun and possibly inform what you study after high school.
