<p>The summer before junior year, I took precalculus at a community college, so I could take AP calculus AB as a junior. I'm now enrolled in BC a a senior. Some colleges say to send transcripts of any college courses you have taken. Since I already have credit for Calc AB (and most likely BC by the end of this year), should I send the transcript with the precalculus? It was only used for high school credit, not college.</p>

<p>I think you’ve answered your own question. Why would you not want to send it? Did you not get a good grade in Precalc? Is it the money? If they ask for it, you should send it.</p>
<p>If you took the class for credit, you need to send the transcript. Not only that, but for the rest of your life whenever you apply for admission to a degree program at any accredited college or university in the UD you will need to have that transcript sent. It is a permanent part of your academic history.</p>

<p>I’m sending it to my common app colleges. The college I’m talking about is Rutgers. On the application it asked about if I took any college courses for college credits that I would try to transfer (also specifically said to neglect AP credits). I said I had zero college credits since the precalc was for high school credit, not college. Also, I have a 5 on Calc AB (most likely a 5 on Calc BC this year) which means I have credit for Calc 1 and most likely Calc 2 by the end of the year, which makes my precalc class worthless in terms of college credit (and precalc isn’t accepted for credit for an engineering degree). Money is an issue, and I’m afraid it will look strange to send it since I already stated on that app that I had zero college credits. : /</p>
<p>If the Rutgers application says only to list college courses taken for college credit, and you didn’t take it for college credit, then you wouldn’t sent a transcript. I don’t see a problem.</p>
<p>Was this a non-credit class (one that no one in the class earns college credit for)?
Was this a class that could be taken for college credit or not for college credit and you chose to take it in non-credit status?
Did you register for the course as an auditor?
Were you an “unofficial” student who was there just because the professor let you sit in?
Was this a high school class that just happened to be taught at the college during the summer session, and generated credits that can only be used in high schools?
Then, you can skip sending the transcript.</p>
<p>If you have a record at that community college that you took the class for credit, and a transcript is generated indicating that X college credits were earned, then you do have to send it. If you are admitted, Rutgers will need to have it on file whether or not the credits can be transferred or not. </p>
<p>As for sending it after telling them that you have no college credits, well contact the admissions office at Rutgers and let them know that you took the class, the transcript is on its way, and that since you used the credit for high school, you don’t expect to use it again as transfer credit in college.</p>
