*Georgia Virtual School does not issue credit for classes. An out of state student is required to check with his/her local school regarding taking any GAVS courses and receive the appropriate permissions prior to beginning the approval process. At the end of the semester, Georgia Virtual School will provide the student's local school with a numeric grade for the course and it will be the school's responsibility to transcribe the credit onto the student's transcript. In the event that an out of state student registers for a course that requires a Georgia End of Course Test (EOCT), the student must take the EOCT on the specified date at the Georgia Educational Technology Training Center located nearest to his/her home. Failure to take the EOCT will result in an incomplete grade for the course.
