I’m not SculptorDad, but I asked Harvard, Brown, Penn, Stanford, Michigan, and Duke. They all said that level completed = # of years. In my own college search and time on CC, I’ve only come across 2 colleges that explicitly state that they only counted the classes taken in HS. One was a small college in the midwest that I can’t recall, and the other was UDel, although their website seems to longer state it, but below is the link to where they did say it earlier:
