High School Completion Course Articulation |
| Policy Number: |
IN-02 |
Purpose:
To ensure that students are not penalized by the differences in specific requirements
imposed by individual districts/campuses within the general guidelines of the
Washington State High School Diploma. To provide a pathway for acceptance of
credit between Washington State high schools and Green River Community College
and to limit the need for duplication of credits previously earned.
Scope:
High School Completion Students
Definitions:
It is important to provide a pathway for
the acceptance of credit between the Washington State high schools and the
community college for high school completion credit.
Policy or Procedure:
If a student transfers an individual course (from a Washington State high school
or community and technical college) that meets a specific state high school
requirement category at the sending institution, that course is considered
to have met that requirement at GRCC, even if this course does not have an
exact equivalent.
It is the student’s responsibility to initiate the articulation process
and to gather appropriate documentation from the high school as needed.
This is in accordance with OSPI guidelines for acceptance of credit and Washington State High
School Diploma requirements.
