Request Transcripts
Understanding Transcripts
Transcripts are typically considered OFFICIAL if they are signed by a school official, sealed in an envelope, and mailed directly to a school. All other versions are typically considered UNOFFICIAL. Some schools have made exceptions to this, and will outline what they will accept as official. It is the student's responsibility to check with their post-secondary institution for what they consider to be official.
Colleges and universities will request transcripts from students upon applying to the school, may ask for a mid-year transcript to check first semester of Senior year grades, and then all will request an OFFICIAL, FINAL transcript upon the student accepting the seat at that school.
Official, final transcripts are important for students to send to their selected university or college. They are not ready to be finalized and sent until the middle of the summer after graduation. Requests for final transcripts can be made prior to graduation, and once transcripts are available for pick up, students and parents can come in to pick them up.
