Admissions Policies
Veritas Academy of Tucson makes individual courses available for parents to select for their children upon admission. Each student who completes on-campus courses will have a transcript on file with the school. A copy of this transcript will be made available to the student’s parents upon request.

Any course instruction received at other schools or instruction provided through home education is the responsibility of the parent. Students may apply for transfer credit for courses taken through an outside source. Credits may be granted if they are in accordance with our school’s credit-transfer policies.
