I have a son in private school who is taking CTY math course for enrichment. His school won’t put any outside course on transcript. Can you please help me figure out how to show it on Common App? Where can I list that course? It’s upper level math and takes a serious time commitment which is why I don’t want to leave it out of the app.
First off, every place in your post past “I have a son” should have he/him/his pronouns. He is applying to college.
The coursework can be listed in the additional information section.
If the CTY course is graded, he can (and for some colleges, must) provide a transcript, even if the HS gave no credit.
Additional info under “writing” section?
Thank you
Exactly
He would love to provide transcript from CTY course. Is this something he would request at the end of the year or should he also provide mid year update on the course?
Really appreciate all the help!
It will be university specific if they need But in general, if this is his first course, he just needs to provide when finalized; no mid year is needed. If he’s taken and finished other courses, those would need to be sent with the application.
