International Virtual Learning Academy offers 3 Graduation Plans
IVLA’s College-Prep and Standard Diploma tracks are designed to prepare students for entrance into most universities and colleges. However, since each college and university has its own entrance requirements, we recommend that you consult the school of your choice to determine which plan best suits your student’s needs.
We want our students to be successful whichever path they choose. Before choosing a diploma path, we suggest that you discuss as a family your student’s plan beyond high school. This will help narrow down which plan is the best fit for your needs. If your plan includes a post-secondary program, we encourage you to research the entrance requirements of that program. Colleges and universities vary in their requirements for entering students. Once you know these requirements, our academic advisor will help you build an academic plan that will fit your student’s needs.
Students receive yearly transcripts and a high school diploma upon successful completion of the graduation requirements. IVLA will apply credits earned from other accredited institutions towards the graduation requirements. Official transcripts from all previous institutions are required prior to credit acceptance.
Our program is designed to be completed in four years. Students who wish to accelerate their progress are free to do so.
