Aquinas International Academy (AIA) offers a full-time American high school diploma program designed for students seeking a rigorous, internationally aligned education that complements their academic goals and prior learning experiences.
The program is built on standards-based coursework aligned with U.S. post-secondary education expectations, including College Board–recognized curricula and UC A–G–approved courses, ensuring academic credibility and university readiness.
AIA takes a transcript-based, academically evaluated approach. Coursework completed in a student’s previous school is formally reviewed and, where appropriate, integrated with AIA courses to create a coherent, graduation-qualified academic plan. All credits applied toward the diploma must meet AIA’s graduation requirements and academic standards.
Through structured instruction, ongoing academic oversight, and counselor-guided planning, students earn an accredited American high school diploma that supports applications to universities in the United States and internationally.
