When entering transcripts, if you entered into college with an advanced standing (example I did not have to take Calc 1 because I had advanced standing) and received 3 credits for it, What semester should I put this advanced standing under? On my official transcript it is placed before my freshman semester in its own row with a grade of T. Did anyone else have this problem about where to put AP credits or advanced standing credits?

Also, how do we know when OptomCAS has received our official transcripts? Do most people wait for the official transcripts to be received before submitting OptomCAS?
 
For academic year did you put your academic standing or your actual year? (For example, freshman with sophomore standing, what would you put?)
 
I would put it under your freshman year. put calc I for 3 credits and put a grade of T. I tested out of spanish 1 and went into spanish 2 and put the spanish 1 course with a grade of T under the same semester I took spanish 2. Then after that you can delegate which courses are your "tested out" courses when you are finalizing your transcript.
 
Thank you very much! Thats what I did
