• Effective August 1, 2007: Prior to enrollment in any non FUHSD course, the student must complete the Alternative Credit Permission Form. The form must be approved by the student’s counselor before any credit can be listed on the student’s transcript. All permission forms (Palomar K-12 forms, Mira Costa K-12 forms, Future’s High School permission forms, BYU Independent Study enrollment, etc) for alternative credits (credits that are taken outside of FUHSD) will no longer be available to students or signed without first completing the FUHSD Alternative Credits Permission Form. No credit will be listed on the student’s transcript without prior approval through the Alternative Credit Permission Form. Please see the Alternative Credit Permission Form for details and restrictions. • The FUHSD Alternative Credits Permission Form is only available in the FUHS Counseling Office. • Only the student’s counselor may sign the Alternative Credit Permission Form (no AVID coordinators, Career Center, Administration, etc). If an Alternative Credit Permission Form is needed during summer, please review the Summer Procedure policy.
- How do I get my Alternative Credit Permission Form approved?
A) Complete and submit the Alternative Credit Permission Form to the Counseling Office. The Counseling Office will only accept completed forms. A completed form consists of the following items (please see the Alternative Credit Permission Form for complete details and restrictions): name of school where course is to be taken, course title and number, number of credits, reason for taking the course, and a copy of the course description. If the school where the course is to be taken requires an additional form, the form will need to be attached to the Alternative Credit Permission Form. If a Palomar or Mira Costa College K-12 form is needed, the counselor will attach a signed K-12 form upon approval. B) It will take approximately two school days for the form to be evaluated for approval or denial by the student’s counselor. It is the student’s responsibility to return to the Counseling Office to pick up the form. No forms will be sent to the student during class time or faxed. C) Once the form has been approved, the student may enroll into that specific course. If the student cannot enroll into that specific course and needs to enroll into an alternative course, an additional Alternative Credit Permission Form is required. If the form has been denied, the student and parent will need to make an appointment with the counselor to discuss additional options for course requirements/credits.

- Once I complete my course, how do I get the credits to post on my FUHS transcript?
A) Immediately upon completing the course, the student MUST request the issuing school site to send an official transcript to FUHS. This MUST be done (1) week prior to the end of the FUHS grading period. Send all official transcripts to: Kathi Hauck, Registrar Fallbrook Union High School 2400 S. Stage Coach Lane Fallbrook, CA 92028 B) If no documentation has been noted and approved for a specific course, the Registrar will notify the student's counselor. The counselor will contact the student and the parent/guardian to state that we cannot post the course credits on your transcript since there was no prior approval (BP 6146.11 and AR 6146.11).
