If my 8th grade ds is taking Saxon Algebra I

Can this be recorded for the high school Algebra credit?

There was a thread on this in the high school forum recently....  Here it is. It's good reading if you're new to the whole transcript thing. :001_smile:

It depends on the college. My daughter has two prospective colleges that she's interested in. One of them told me that nothing taken before 9th grade will count on a high school transcript towards the total credits that the college requires. The other told me that any high school level course taken in middle school or high school should be included on the transcript and would count toward their requirements.

Thank you.   I guess it's time for me to start keeping up with the High School board.

Never thought about that.  Thanks for letting me know.

My son also finished Algebra 1 in the 8th grade. I'm putting it on his transcript, but not including it as part of his total credit hours.
