Transferring College Classes to Newport High School

Is it possible to transfer college credits back to high school, specifically Newport High School? I took some community college courses and wondered if they’d count towards my high school graduation requirements.

To transfer college credits back to high school, you'll generally need to coordinate with both the college and your high school counselor. Some high schools accept college credits as elective credits, while others might count them towards specific required courses, depending on the nature of the course taken.

Newport High School, specifically, does allow dual-credit courses, which are college courses that count towards both high school and college credits. However, these are typically coordinated ahead of time.

If you've already completed the courses at your community college, you must get in touch with your high school counselor as soon as possible. They will be able to guide you on whether these college credits can be transferred and applied toward your high school graduation requirements.

Keep in mind that policies can vary by school, so what worked for one student might not necessarily apply in your situation. That's why it's so important to get the official information from your counselor. You should have a transcript from the community college on hand when you speak with them, so you can clearly show what courses you've taken and the grades you've earned.
