Alberta High School Diploma

A student must earn a minimum of 100 credits to graduate from high school with an Alberta High School Diploma. Some workplaces or post-secondary institutions may require additional credits and/or specific courses. High school students in Alberta are encouraged to take a wide range of courses.

Provincial exams (Diplomas) are required in English 30-1 and 30-2, Social Studies 30-1 and 30-2, Mathematics 30-1 and 30-2, Biology 30, Chemistry 30, Physics 30 and Science 30. Final marks in these courses represent a blend of school and provincial exam marks. For information about Diploma Examinations, please visit Alberta.ca.
