The credits typically count as elective credits in another college. All students are required to fulfill a certain number of elective credits by the time they graduate college.
The transcript will not show that you are in high school. It will have you listed as a non-matriculated student.
The letter grade will appear on your transcript. Some schools do not require you to share your transcript with the college while other schools do.
Students who can articulate their interest in a specific major and how they want to explore it in college have a significant advantage in the college admission process. This course covers many topics that are gateways to majors like science, philosophy, and medicine. One of our students was admitted into Stanford after writing in her application about the relationship between science and faith. Colleges also prefer students who have a wealth of experience and knowledge beyond what their regular classes provide.
Exams scores can be accessed in the canvas portal.
A month following the final exam, Yeshiva University will mail your transcripts to your home address.
