Transfer or first year

<p>I am a senior in high school and am doing running start. I will have my AA when I graduate form high school. Does anyone know if I apply to colleges as a transfer student or a first year student?</p>

<p>The way it works in NY when you have done duel enrollment is that for the competitive, top colleges you apply as a freshmen. They will accept some but probably not most of your college credits. At state schools like CUNY and SUNY, you would apply as a transfer and they should accept all of your credits.</p>
