This obviously, obviously depends on which district you are in.

So taking the test/doing the additional assignments is free, even though that's what takes teacher time and resources, but you have to pay to get official credit, which doesn't actually cost the district anything? That's bonkers.

Rare to list them anywhere (unless it’s Pitt)…most schools don’t ask any courses to be listed. You just submit the transcripts.

My son has a college transcript and a high school one. He has 12 community college credits which should transfer for at least electives.
It’s free in our district to take certain community college courses.

How it is notated on the HS transcript may vary. In MCPS it says “MC-course name” for courses taken via DE with Montgomery college. Those courses are given the “Advanced” designation, which is not unique to DE. Then in the school column it says “MCPS-Non-MCPS School”

That said, we sent both the HS and the college transcript for every school that required a transcript.

Is this a public school? If so, that's a troubling policy.

Appreciate that you live in a district that gives free CC classes and credit for HS students.

This.

Your student should have two transcripts - one from HS and one from the college offering the DE credits.

We didn't pay for the credit. It was more a question about when parents give their kid's stats they say 6 Dual Enrollment classes, for example.

I’m confused. Are you asking the above or what you originally asked: How exactly is dual enrollment recognized on a transcript?

You get a transcript from the college giving the credit
