SCVi Roadmap to Successfully
Meeting Your Graduation Requirements
Course of Study for SCVi Graduation
SCVi graduation requirements prepare learners to be eligible for UC/CSU admissions (completing the A-G requirements).
International Baccalaureate (IB) courses may be taken individually or in their entirety to earn a full IB Diploma or IB Certificates, which some universities accept for college credit.
Similar to AP and Honors classes, SCVi offers IB and college classes, which give a weighted GPA to the learner upon graduation.
