Running Start

Students interested in pursuing either full or part-time Running Start during their Junior or Senior year, should carefully review the following information with their family prior to meeting with their alpha counselor. Bellevue College is not the only Running Start program available to students, but it is the most common campus for MIHS students.

Please see the New & Returning Student tab for steps in this process

   1. Follow this template- anything highlighted should be completed by you prior to a Counselor meeting, so that we can complete the rest and sign the form in a timely manner
6. Set up a Counselor meeting (our Counseling Secretaries can help with this!). Students must bring all documents to the appointment.
