Traditionally, students who successfully complete the College Board Advanced Placement Program (AP) and higher-level International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Programme in their high schools go on to achieve academic success at the University of South Carolina.

The IBO (The International Baccalaureate Organization) offers three programs to schools: the "Diploma Programme" for students in the final two years of secondary school, the "Middle Years Programme" for students aged 11 to 16, and the "Primary Years Program" for students aged 3 to 12.

Virtual learning instruction involves teaching students course content via the Internet. As in a traditional, face-to-face classroom, teachers facilitate daily learning activities such as discussions, projects, labs, group work, and writing workshops. By providing feedback, remediation, and enrichment, virtual learning instructors guide students through SCVSP, content-approved courses.
