I have taken a number of PLTW courses offered at my high school and have tested to get college credit at RIT. What is the best way to indicate this credit on my Common App. Should it be listed under the Colleges and Universities section even though I didn’t take the course at the school and only received credit by taking a test? Also, is it beneficial to send my RIT transcript to the colleges I am applying to in order to show my ability in taking college level classes?
For PLTW and any dual enrollment classes, you must send your college transcript along with your high school transcript to any colleges to which you apply, even though the same class will show on both transcripts. So yes, you could put it under the “Colleges and Universities” section.
