I just looked at the school profile from our HS. Our HS “gives out” 14 different types of diplomas, ranging from the highest- which is “Regents Diploma with Advanced Designation and Honors in Math and Science” down to "Local Diploma with CTE (nobody earned that one last year). Not sure what CTE is. Also- I do not think that the type of diploma that is earned is listed anyplace on the common app or on the report that is sent out by guidance. Our GC checks off the type of courses (rigor) and writes in whether you graduated numbers 1-10. If you are higher than #10 then your decile is reported. I do not think there is a spot for the type of diploma- so how would a college know whether an advanced diploma was earned? It may be written on the final transcript, but the final transcript does not get sent to the school until July (at our school).
