How do I enroll in the High School Completion Program?
1. Bring a sealed official copy of your high school transcript (record of your grades) to Janet Fisher, or have high school(s) and college(s) send official transcripts to:
Janet Fisher
Olympic College Shelton
937 Alpine Way
Shelton, WA 98584-1200
2. If you are under the age 19, you must obtain a high school release form from your high school and have it signed by the principal, counselor or school official, and by your parent or guardian.
3. Contact Janet Fisher, Counselor: (360) 432-5450 or jfisher@oc.ctc.edu and make an appointment for an Adult High School Diploma evaluation. For the conference, you will need (if not already on file):
- A copy of your high school transcript( an unofficial transcript can be used for this initial evaluation, but an official transcript, received in a sealed envelope, must be on file for you to receive your diploma);
- Official documentation of any other experiences which you intend to use for the diploma, such as correspondence courses, military service, or vocational training .
What books will I have to buy?
Students must buy their own books. At times the instructor may also have loaner books available.
What courses can I take?
An evaluation must be done before we can tell you what courses you need to complete your diploma. You may take high school level courses or college level courses, and when you take college level courses, you are able to apply them to the diploma and also toward an Associate's Degree.
We use the state requirements for the diploma. A total of 19 credits is required and is spread among English, mathematics, US history, Washington State history, contemporary world problems, science, physical education, occupational subjects and electives.
