This can take many forms. One free transcript site is listed here as a start. Many other types of transcripts are possible. In order for the class to be considered "dual credit" the class must be necessary for the student to graduate according to the school's graduation plan (this is the plan YOU create.) If the class is not necessary to graduate according to your plan, the student can still take the class as "exceptional admission". LIST THE CLASSES IN WHICH THE STUDENT WILL BE ENROLLED FOR THE UPCOMING SEMESTER on the transcript. This should include the dual credit class(es) in which the student will be enrolled.
