Determine if an ISC is right for you.
Click here for important details to consider when making your decision.
If you have decided that you want to pursue an ISC, create a Google Drive folder in your My Drive and call it Last Name First Name ISC (e.g. Smith John ISC).
Be sure to use your school account. You will have trouble accessing required documents if you use an "outside" email.
Use this Google Drive folder to hold any ISC-related work
Share your ISC Google Drive folder with isc@cloud.edu.pe.ca and with your supervising teacher.
The isc@cloud.edu.pe.ca email is connected to the Department's Flexible Learning Support Leader. Once you share your ISC Google Drive folder with this email, it will allow them to review your application, supporting documents, etc. and provide feedback.
Make a copy of the Application Form to go into your own ISC Drive Folder.
In some circumstances, when you make a copy of a Google Doc, it puts the copy of the file into the folder where the original Doc is located. You want to make sure that the copy goes into your own ISC Drive Folder and not into the source folder. If you aren't sure how to do this, ask a teacher at your school for help.
Open up the Support Document (relevant sections are also linked in the application form itself).
Complete the School-Based Approval Page.
There is a School-Based Approval Page for Grade 11 and 12 Students.
There is a different School-Based Approval Page for Grade 10 students who wish to apply for an ISC521A credit.
The approval form requires signatures so you need to print it and have it signed by everyone.
Once you have those signatures, you can scan the document and add it to your ISC Google Drive folder.
Complete your Application Form and ensure that the most up-to-date copy is in your ISC Google Drive folder.
This is a very detailed and time-consuming task. You need to plan carefully.
Be sure to reach out to your teacher-supervisor and mentor during the process for feedback and support.
When your application is complete and your School-Based approval pages signed and added to your Google Drive folder, reach out to isc@cloud.edu.pe.ca to let them know you are ready for your application to be reviewed.
You will receive approval (and if necessary, some feedback) and an approval form from the Department that you can add to your ISC Google Drive.
Once approval is received, you are ready to begin.
