If I understand you correctly, you’re a high school student who’s taken CC courses to supplement your high school workload, and you’ve gotten mostly As and Bs at the CC while maintaining excellent grades in high school. And you will apply to four-year colleges as a high school senior for freshman status. Correct?

If so, this will not hurt you at all; most colleges will look very favorably on your (successful) efforts to seek a rigorous courseload and educational enrichment beyond what your high school offers. And you’ve demonstrated that you are perfectly capable of succeeding in college-level courses.

Submit your CC transcript with pride; it will be an /addition/ to your high GPA in high school, not a detriment.
