What Should You Do Now?
Now that you have finished Unit 1 and have decided that you would like to continue with this process, here are your next steps:
- Request your transcripts. Sometimes tracking down transcripts can take some time. We highly recommend you request those now. This way by the time you are done with this course you will be ready to go! Start by contacting the high school(s) you attended.
- Complete the Unit 1 Milestone. Take the unit test to assess your knowledge of the content from this first unit.
- Continue onto Unit 2! You will receive more information and guidance in the final unit of this course.
