I graduated high school early and/or attended an early college program, how does this impact my application and credit transfer?
Students who enrolled at a college before completeing a traditonal high school program, or who attended an early college program (such as Bard Early College at Simon’s Rock or Clarkson), must have a high school diploma or a GED in order to be eligible for any degree seeking program at Connecticut College. In the case where a student has a high school diploma, and all of the college course work completed to date has ben used to satify high school graduation requirements, we would not be able to award the student any transfer credit, and the student should apply to Connecticut College as a new freshman. If only some of the college courses were used to satisfy high school graduation requirements, a student should apply as a transfer, but transfer credit would not be awarded for any of the courses that had been used to satisfy any of the high school graduation requirements. In both of these scenarios, the student would need to present a letter from his or her high school guidance counselor
