Direct Certification of College Admissions Portfolio Program
University Dual Enrollment Program for Advanced High School Students delivered by UMG, University of Massachusetts Global, and Partner Universities. Completion of all 5 college credit courses and the DCCAP (1) program may result in awarding of an American High School Honors Diploma.
Award of the American High School Diploma from US Heritage Academy, a Florida, USA private school, requires completion of specific credits, in addition to, or in lieu of, approved specific local school requirements.
