Frequently Asked Questions about CTE!

 

Q: How do students register for their CTE course?

A: Student Registration Instructions

Q: When will my credits earned through CTE be transcribed?

A:  At the end of the school year, the Registration team will work on adding credits. Tentatively, students should see these credits on their transcripts by September. 

Q: I forgot to register for the class, can I still receive college credit for the class? 

A: No, once the registration period has closed for the school year, WVC cannot retro activate credits.

Q: Do students have to get a B or better to receive the credit?  Should a teacher report the grade if they didn’t get a B?

A: Yes, to obtain college credit a student must receive a B or better in the course. We encourage teachers to report grades even if the student did not obtain the credit for both the high school and college records. That way if they didn't obtain the credits, we can pull their records and explain. This also helps our registration team verify which students obtained credit and which did not. 

Q: Can I retake the same class for a better grade if I did not obtain the 'B' or better?

A: Yes, as long as you're covering the same content, you may retake the course for a better grade.
