International High School Programs

A Level-2 or A2 is the second and final year of A Level studies which ends with the exam organized by EDEXCEL-PEARSON. Students of grade 12 can complete their Bilingual High School Program and A2 at the same time. In this way, they can earn two prestigious diplomas of A Level and “Érettségi” conferred by the Hungarian Education Authority.

A Level -1 or AS is the first year of an internationally recognized British System offered by the Cambridge University. Those students who have finished 10 years of education with 2 years in secondary education can join this program. Those who join A Level have usually completed their IGCSE but this is not a prerequisite to enroll in this program. The previous studies in Hungary or outside Hungary are always considered positively. AIC students can study Grade 11 and AS in parallel. The science subjects are chosen by the students depending on their future university study plan.

IGCSE is a British education system which stands for International General Certificate of Secondary Education. At Grade 10 students finish their IGCSE program and at the end of the year, they take the exams which leads to international certificates issued by EDEXCEL - PEARSON. We offer a strong basis for languages and science subjects. AIC students are allowed to complete IGCSE-2 together with Hungarian Bilingual High School Grade 10. In this way, they can earn two prestigious diplomas at the end of year 12.

International and Hungarian students can apply for IB Diploma Program at AIC which will be under the auspices of IBO. IB Diploma Program essentially takes two years to complete. However, most students will need one-year Pre-IB studies to prepare them for successful IB studies which leads to an internationally recognized diploma. Also, those international students who just join AIC for A Level studies may need to complete this course to bridge the gaps in their previous studies especially if they have not been trained in a British system.

Hungarian and international students at grade 12 get ready for the final examinations which are held by the Hungarian Ministry of Education. Our students stand among the most qualified students at national and international levels. Grade 12 students are also prepared for their university studies. Previous AIC students have successfully joined the most prestigious universities in Europe. They study in medical, technical and business fields.

Grade 11 of AIC High School program is in parallel with A Level -1 which prepares the students for a Cambridge qualification. Students can choose to follow both programs simultaneously with spending a little more time and effort. At this grade, AIC students are already fluent in English and have taken a few international exams. Further consolidation of languages and sciences continues at this grade, yet students get introduced to university admission requirements.

After successful completion of Grade 9, students are promoted to Grade 10 which can also prepare the students for IGCSE-2 as a Cambridge University qualification. Upon completion of the Avicenna high school program, students will be conferred a degree called “Érettségi” which is recognized by all 27 EU countries and all around the world. Students can join any Hungarian or other European universities after successful completion of this program. Grade 10 will further expand the language abilities of our students and prepare them for A-Level studies. English, German and Hungarian are the languages in focus.
