NOW ENROLLING STUDENTS WORLDWIDE
A Global Classroom, An American Foundation
Global Leadership School offers a fully online, WASC-accredited pathway to an American high school diploma. Much like the world's most innovative learning communities, our virtual classrooms bring together students from across the globe to exchange cultural insights, tackle challenges together, and earn U.S. credits while studying at home.
WASC-Accredited
Credits and transcripts recognized by U.S. colleges and universities.
NCAA-Approved Courses
Student-athletes can take courses approved by the NCAA for U.S. college sports.
Flexible Online Learning
Study on a schedule that works in your own time zone.
College-Ready Preparation
Deep reading, cognitive stamina, and independent thinking for success at American universities.
Flexible Enrollment
Global Leadership School offers diverse pathways to success, tailored to each student's unique academic goals and schedule. Whether joining us full-time for a complete U.S. diploma or enriching your current studies with a single course, our accredited programs provide the flexibility to learn from anywhere in the world.
Full-Time
Full-time students attend Global Leadership School as their primary or only school. High school students can earn a diploma once they fulfill all graduation requirements, which typically means completing four to five GLS courses per year.
Part-Time
Part-time GLS students are often enrolled part-time at another school, homeschooled, or—less commonly—attending another school full-time. Part-time enrollment involves taking two to three GLS courses.
Single Course Enrollment
Students who take a single course at GLS are usually enrolled full-time at another school. Choosing one course to meet a specific academic need or interest lets students stay rooted in their current school while also becoming part of our vibrant student community.

Expanding Academic Opportunities Through University Collaboration
USC Bridge Program
Through the USC Bridge Program, Global Leadership School provides students access to approved academic courses offered in collaboration with the University of Southern California.
The program gives GLS students an opportunity to engage with university-level academic experiences while continuing their GLS studies. Eligible courses may also provide opportunities to earn academic credit, subject to the requirements and policies of the respective program.
