Can you take more than one class at a Community college?

Would all of those classes be considered AP classes?

What kind of classes are considered as AP classes?

Can you take classes at a Community college over the summer?

Can you take classes at the community college and get high school credits for it?
Most commonly yes a community college credit can be a high school credit. Here in NC, you can actually go to the community college during one of your high school periods and just come back to the campus when your done if you have another class at the high school.

Also in some states they are starting things called "The Edge" when you take classes at your community college to start college while in high school.

Really it depends by state and schools, so I would really go and ask your high school counselor these questions.

Can you take more than one class at a Community college?
Yes you can, really it all comes down to your schedule and if your counselor thinks you can take it. Most commonly you can take up to 12 credit hours so typically around 3-4 classes, but if your a high school student as well they'll probably only allow up to 2.

Would all of those classes be considered AP classes?
No, the only AP classes you'll be able to take are through your high school. And when you sign up for your classes it should have AP by the name.

Can you take classes at a Community college over the summer?
Yes, you can. Community colleges have a Fall, Spring, and Summer semesters I suppose you could call it. You will need to get a college catalog and see what classes you would be interested in first off and see if there are any prerequisites for those classes. Also you're more than likely going to need an official copy of your high school transcripts so when you meet up with a counselor at the college they can evaluate them.
