A Kolbe transcript will be generated automatically for any student who completes an Academic Semester Credit class. Students should expect the typical amount of outside work in these classes, including papers, reading, exams and/or final projects, and other assignments. All Academic Semester courses may be counted toward the subject requirements of the Standard or Magna Cum Laude Diplomas. Students pursuing the Summa Cum Laude diploma may count the Fine Arts courses toward their fine arts subject requirements, but the remainder do not fulfill any of the Summa diploma's subject requirements. All Academic Semester classes will receive the Kolbe Summer Course (OS) designation on the student transcript.
