High school counselors should provide students with a list of remaining high school graduation requirements in the “comments” section. The Running Start Enrollment Verification Form must be signed by a high school contact, a parent/guardian, the student, and an SVC representative. This form must be completed and signed every quarter in order for the Running Start students to register for classes at SVC.
