College-level courses completed while attending high school as part of, or an addition to, high school graduation requirements are considered ‘Dual Enrollment’ (DE). If you are taking or have completed any DE courses, be sure to request an official copy of your college transcript for your CCS admissions counselor and let them know early on about this accomplishment. Tip* see if you can do this digitally through parchment or clearinghouse.
Placement of any DE coursework toward program requirements will be subject to our Transfer Credit Policy
