02 · How the dual diploma works

Add a Pathway. Don't Replace Your Curriculum.

Your school keeps doing what it does well. Hudson Global Scholars adds a focused set of U.S. courses on top — and eligible work students have already done can count toward the U.S. graduation framework.

Eligible coursework already completed within the student's existing school programme can contribute toward the wider U.S. graduation framework, subject to transcript evaluation. Students therefore do not need to repeat an entire American high-school curriculum.

04 · Academic English — a key difference

Passing IELTS Is Not the Same as Studying in English.

IELTS / TOEFL

Measures English proficiency

A test score confirms a level of language ability at a single point in time. It's a useful checkpoint — but it isn't the same as learning through English, day after day.

U.S. Academic Coursework

Develops the ability to actually study in English

  • Read academic material
  • Write essays and structured responses
  • Conduct research
  • Communicate with teachers
  • Manage academic deadlines
  • Study independently
  • Receive and act on feedback in English
  • Complete real academic subjects in English
Don't Just Prepare Students to Pass an English Test.Prepare Them to Study at an English-Speaking University.

Students generally need appropriate English readiness to begin, with English-support options available where applicable.

05 · A stronger international academic profile
