Credit Transfer

Students that are transferring to GVA with High School credits should have their official transcript sent to admissions@gatewayvirtualacademy.com. Transcripts will be assessed by the Head of Learning Support. 

Notification will be sent to the Learning Coach regarding the number of credits that will be accepted towards the GVA High School Diploma. A minimum of 8 credits must be studied and completed with GVA to attain a GVA High School Diploma.

Students may choose to enroll in High School courses outside GVA. These credits may be accepted towards a diploma here at GVA. Students who elect to complete credits in this way should send their transcripts that reflect outside credits to admissions@gatewayvirtualacademy.com and will be assessed by the Head of Learning Support.

Credit Recovery

For students who are in need of extra credits or credit recovery, we suggest that students contact the Head of Learning Support in the first instance. The cost of these extra courses is $225 during the school year and $175  during the summer, per 0.5 course. 

Senior Fee

All seniors with 24 or more credits and who are on track to graduate will be assessed a senior processing fee of $85 for students residing in the US and $125 for non-US residents, due by June 1 of the academic year. The fee covers the diploma and shipping costs.

An additional $200 fee (per country) is due for students abroad who require an authentication seal. This fee is important for students who wish to attend colleges outside of the US.
