6. UNIQUE BENEFITS FOR OUR INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS

A. Our Dual Enrollment Program allows High School (ages 14-17) Students to earn credentials from their local institution as well as a US High School Diploma from IHICA International Online Academy upon graduation.  Having a US High School Diploma alleviates the student potentially being placed in any remedial courses when they come to the States for Higher Education.

 

B. Students can matriculate through the curriculum at their own pace of comprehension.  Goals are set and assessed by facilitators and students to insure students remain on task to optimum completion.  Exceptional students can complete their studies ahead of their expected graduation time depending on their individual efforts and dedication.  Some students in our institution have graduated 2 to 3 years ahead of schedule and moved directly on to the college or university of their choice.

 

C. Training Courses and Pre-Testing are available to all of our students for preparation in taking the ACT and SAT Tests (US Standardize Testing required to enter into US Colleges and Universities)

 

D. Students who graduate from the IHICA International Online Academy have the opportunity of having an I-20 extended to them for the purpose of studying abroad in the US.  Qualifying applicants must have successfully completed and participated in our program for a minimum of one consecutive academic school year.

 

E. Language, accent barriers are broken as the courses taught online are by American English speaking Instructors.  This gives the students an opportunity to catch on and get use to the speech and terminology in America, making the transition to continuing their education and life in the States much smoother.

 

F. High School students, with a minimum GPA of 3.0 could possibly be eligible for a Dual Enrollment program with Liberty University or Northwestern University via IHICA International Online Academy.  Courses can be taken that will allow students to also earn an Associate Degree from these Higher Learning Institutions at the same time of their graduation from high school.  There are additional cost involved in obtaining an Associate Degree.

If the student has relatives in the States and desire to stay with them, they will have to undergo an interview and be approved by IHICA Personnel. Again, this approval is at our discretion.  The guidelines in such an instance are meticulously spelled out and will have to be strictly adhered to.
