Prospective Students
How Running Start Works
The credits you earn at Highline can, with
careful planning, apply to your high school graduation and college
degree or certificate.
Your college tuition (up to 18 college-level
credits per quarter) are covered through Running Start.
Books and applicable fees are your responsibility.
Running Start is available fall, winter and
spring quarters. If you want to attend summer quarter,
you will need to apply to our Enhancement program and pay tuition
and applicable fees.
Highline follows federal guidelines under the
Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) which means that
only students have access to their college grades and
records. Release of Information forms are available at the
Registration counter.
Five college credits are equivalent to one high
school credit.
The grades and credits earned through Running
Start at Highline Community College are part of your permanent
college and high school transcripts.
Your high school calendar and breaks will not
always match with the Highline's academic calendar.
