[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our kid took 3 English classes during HS from NoVa Community College while attending a DC catholic school.  These were not "dual enrollment" in the typical sense where they replace the equivalent HS class.  They were just college level classes in addition to all HS classes.

Kid dsed those 9 English credits to skip two freshman English classes that would have been required at his university and graduated in 3.5 years from a top 20 school. [/quote]

I don’t know of any top 20 school that accepts community college credit.  [/quote]

Cornell did.  [/quote]

That poster is uninformed. Yes, plenty of colleges accept limited CC credit, including top 20 schools.

If using CC credit is a problem, just do DE with a local university then (or find a university that does DE that your kid's expected schools might take). For example FCPS has an agreement with George Mason for DE classes, but families can take the initiative to do DE themselves with GMU as well. It's in the back of my mind because our school's math only goes through AP Calculus AB and DC is on track to be done with that by junior year of HS.[/quote]
