Supplemental Program
Through the Gwinnett Online Campus Supplemental Program, students enrolled at a local high school may take up to five courses as part of their regular school schedule without paying a fee. Students may also choose to pay tuition and take additional courses after school or during the summer— to get ahead or make room in their schedule for electives. GOC offers more than 175 online courses and delivers over 5,800 segments through the Supplemental Program each year.

High School Dates
Middle School Dates
Eighth-grade students interested in a GOC tuition course should contact their local school 8th-grade counselor or assistant principal, who will submit the request to GOC on the student's behalf. Once the request is received, a $250 tuition fee will be posted to the student's MyPaymentsPlus account beginning July 27, 2026. Fees will not be posted before this date and must be paid before the first day of class, August 10, 2026.
Two Ways to Take Supplemental Courses
FTE or Tuition?
Supplemental students in grades 6 -12 may take up to five courses online in one of two ways: FTE or Tuition. Gwinnett Online Campus serves over 7,500 GCPS students each year through the Supplemental Program; therefore, students enrolled in the Supplemental Program are NOT eligible to participate in Gwinnett Online Campus's extracurricular events.
FTE
Online courses are offered as part of the student's regular school schedule. Students must meet with their local school counselor (high school) or grade level administrator (middle school) to register for an FTE course and are not allowed to drop these courses. The number of classes a student is allowed to take online as a FTE student varies by school. Students are responsible for contacting their counselor for more information. More information can be found in the GCPS Parent/Student Handbook page 27.
TUITION
Students may take courses outside their normal school day. These courses are offered on a for-fee tuition basis. We recommend that students take no more than one course per session outside of their regular school day. The tuition for each .05 credit course costs $250. Parents make tuition course requests. Students’ local high school counselors must approve all classes before students will have access to GOC courses. After approval, a fee will be added to the student's MyPaymentsPlus account and must be paid in full by the end of the first week of school.
