Sebastian (a lady) Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 If your kid is headed off to college this year, don't forget to send in the Final Transcript showing the end of senior year grades and gpa. If your kid did dual enrollment spring semester, you probably need to request a final transcript from that college as well. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sebastian (a lady) Posted June 17, 2017 Author Share Posted June 17, 2017 And don't forget to change "expected graduation" to "graduation date." Just sayin... I was sure I did this, but I still had to check and make sure. Which was pretty pointless, since I couldn't get the submission back anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpedIntoTheDeepEndFirst Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Yup-change to "graduation date" and change to "Final Transcript", also recalculate the GPA to reflect all courses. And send AP scores. Totally forgot to do this, had to be reminded by college (possibly more than once). In my own defense over the two months before the start of the school year I travelled to another country for surgery and moved half way around the world. That just didn't make my to do list on the first go. Trying to be better next time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebastian (a lady) Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 Remember to put the official graduation date on it. I had 1June2016 (projected) on one kid's and forgot to take the projected off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisIsTheDay Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 My son received his AA through community college. He was shocked last week at his transfer school orientation during his advisor meeting when his advisor recommended several Gen Ed classes. He panicked a bit and was texting me. At some point, my son realized that the school had JUST received his final CC transcript and had not yet given him credit for his degree--which automatically credits all gen ed requirements. Lesson learned! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltopmom Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 18 minutes ago, kand said: I'm getting ready to mail the final transcript, and am wondering if I'm supposed to do something special with the envelope. Do I need to sign across the sealed opening or anything? I recall my high school transcript being done like that, I think. Are there any instructions to guide me on this? Do I enclose any kind of letter with it? Or just pop it in an envelope and mail to the address they say to mail it to? I feel like this is my final homeschool administrator task for my oldest, and then I can truly say "done!" If you used the Common App you can just upload it, if not, I guess I’d send it however you sent the one for the application. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klmama Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 I enclosed a cover letter with it and signed my initials across the seal of the envelope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 My son's final graduation packet from his school included a copy. We sent it off the next day. He is happily at college already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
