[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the thing you have to be careful with is using the DE class for high school credit.  Then it may not transfer.  That’s the catch.

Your student may not NEED the high school credit because they’ve taken high school classes in middle school so the DE can transfer.

Just read all the details before making decisions.  [/quote]

That’s not an accurate statement at all. It’s called DUAL CREDIT because it counts toward both at the same time (assuming the college has it in their approved  credit list). [/quote]

No... colleges force you to choose - is the class a high school class (then it shows you are taking advanced classes, can place you in higher level courses in college, etc., but you are still a freshman admit) OR is the class a college class, contributing to an Associates' degree (then you receive college credit), but are usually applying as a transfer student.  You don't get to count it as high school and then still graduate in two years.[/quote]
