Step 1: Complete the college's Running Start application on their website. 

Be sure to follow ALL enrollment steps (including completing your English and Math placement) and procedures as specified by the college you wish to attend. 

Step 2: Decide on the following:

• Do you want to participate in full-time (all classes at the college) or part-time (some classes at the college, some classes at FHS) Running Start?

• Do you want to pursue an AA degree from the college? If yes, do you want your high school diploma issued from Fife High School or from the college?

* These decisions will guide the appropriate paperwork to complete in step 3 and how you proceed with the program. Keep in mind the following:

-Students earning their HS diploma from FHS will need to follow their school counselor's recommendations for college courses each quarter

-Students earning their diploma from the college will receive their EVF from Fife School District Office personnel each quarter

-Students earning their diploma from the college do NOT participate in FHS's June Graduation ceremony

 Step 3: Complete the appropriate paperwork:

• Fife High School Running Start Participation Form

• **Homeschool and RS Not-Seeking Diploma Agreement (only complete these forms if you are planning to earn your high school diploma through the college. If you are planning to earn your diploma through FHS, you do not need to complete these forms)

Step 4: Contact the high school counselor to submit paperwork and complete the Enrollment Verification Form

At your meeting be prepared with the following:

• Signed Participation Form(s) - see step 3 above

• Your English and Math placement from the college (i.e. English 101 and Math 107)

• An idea of which class(es) you would like to take at FHS, if any

• An idea of which classes you might want to take during Fall Quarter (see Course Equivalency Guide below)
