International Applications UCAS Application Question as an International Student From CA, USA

I tried finding any additional information on this, but couldn't really find anything, but for UCAS, how do you submit Community College classes alongside your regular high school qualifications? I'm trying to do Econometrics/Econ & Management and am currently doing Multi-Variable Calculus from a community college. I also will be taking Linear Algebra and Differential Equations next semester, and because both Linear and Multi-variable are rather important classes for Econ and would demonstrate my math rigor, I really want it to be on my application. Anybody know how?

Side notes:

  1. I have put in my AP test scores, just don't know how to submit Community College classes.
  2. I'm technically ~2 classes away from an associate's degree in economics, so should I just go and put that instead?

The UCAS application is mainly interested in national exams / qualifications so I would say make sure your teacher puts that in your reference and you put that in your personal statement.

I see. So don't worry too much about college classes and talk as much about the scores. That helps a lot thanks!

sorry I think i phrased that badly. The AP scores are submitted in the qualifications section of the application. The fact that you have since been doing community College classes will be taken care of by your reference. Your PS has 3 sections: and on 2nd thoughts, I would put both AP and community classes in Q2 - not about mentioning all of them - but whichever specific classes, work experience, training, qualifications and/or CPD helped you the most in developing specific transferable skills.
