American Diploma Program

The American Diploma Program at the Islamic Educational College (IEC) provides a dynamic and flexible pathway rooted in the U.S. high school curriculum. Designed to prepare students for success at both local and international universities, the program emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, creativity, and innovation.

Students benefit from a broad selection of subjects in the sciences, humanities, mathematics, and the arts, allowing them to tailor their learning according to their interests and future aspirations. The program is further enriched with English, Science, and Technology (EST) courses, College Board Advanced Placement (AP) offerings, and comprehensive college preparatory guidance, ensuring students are fully equipped for higher education.

Beyond academics, the program nurtures globally minded learners through community service, leadership opportunities, and entrepreneurship initiatives. By fostering full personality development alongside academic achievement, IEC graduates are empowered to become responsible, and well-rounded leaders ready to make meaningful contributions to society.
