Our Model
Two High school Diplomas
At WAY American School, students are able to earn two distinct diplomas to help students interested in going on to higher education in the United States.
Our diploma provides the opportunity for students to earn a U.S. diploma while remaining enrolled at a school in their country. They are able to transfer their credits from their local school to WAY American School and move towards the American diploma faster. At the end, students will receive an American diploma and the diploma from their native country.
