Course Descriptions
Do colleges even see them?
One thing that public and private schools have that homeschoolers do not, are school profiles.
These profiles provide insight into one of the three most critical evaluation metrics: depth and breadth of courses.
Along with grades and ACT/SAT test scores, course rigor is another tool college reps use to do the "rough sorting" of applications.
So including course descriptions along with your student's transcript will only help their application.
Even if they're never read, including them demonstrates thoroughness and organization.
