How to Earn an American High School Diploma

There are two ways students can earn an American High School Diploma: enroll full time or attain it in addition to another country’s diploma. For both options, our academic advisors will review previous coursework to ensure that students meet all graduation requirements.

U.S. Dual Diploma Program

Earn an American High School Diploma and your country’s diploma by taking at least 10 semester-length courses online at a Hudson Global Scholars network school along with your local school’s curriculum. 

Good for Students Who:

  • Seek the prestige of having two diplomas

  • Want to demonstrate a high level of English and academic accomplishment

  • Hope to attend an English-speaking university

I think it will change my future because if I want to go to college in the U.S., having a diploma may make it easier. Also for later in life, if I want to get a masters degree in the U.S., it will help me.
