Every successful VIS graduate receives a VIS High School Diploma. The VIS Diploma is a document showing completion of a high school level programme of study in an accredited school (VIS is accredited by CIS and WASC). This type of programme is based on the credit system, beginning in Grade 9. A passing grade of at least 3 on a scale of 7 to 1 in a course that meets on average of at least 150 minutes per week earns one credit. To receive the VIS Diploma the student needs to accumulate a total of 24 credits. Subject
