  • What universities do you currently have a partnership with?
    Our partnership with Crestpoint University, an accredited institution, allows us to offer high-quality dual credit options to our students.
  • Are all courses offered through Compass Virtual Academy dual highschool + college credit?
    No. We have several options available for high school credit only. There are two reasons we offer a handful of high school-only classes. One reason is to allow students the option for additional skill-building opportunities to ensure they will be adequately prepared for college-level material (e.g., Pre-algebra, Research Writing, etc.). Another reason is to provide classes that are commonly expected to be recorded on a high school transcript (e.g., P.E./Health, Personal Finance, Art, etc.).
  • What degree options do I have?
    Crestpoint University offers a flexible Bachelor of Science in Business and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology.
  • Can my student earn college credit?
    We offer a high school option where each class will meet high school requirements and bachelor's degree requirements at the same time. Our 4-year program is designed for quality, not quantity and leads to a high school diploma and regionally accredited bachelor's degree by high school graduation. Students spend 3 hours a day focused on learning in this program
