[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a difference between classes taken as a HS student in conjunction with a community college and just taking classes on your own. Once you take classes at any college outside of dual enrollment you are no longer considered a first time freshman. This can severely impact your ability to get into many four year schools. Proceed with caution.[/quote] This really isn't an issue for college classes taken before high school graduation. No one will force your DC to apply as a transfer. The selective colleges will generally not give credit or advanced standing, but admissions will definitely consider them as meaningful indicators of competency at college level work. Certainly if your DC's highs school doesn't offer courses past the AP level, advanced classes at local colleges can be great (though expensive). [/quote]
