How to give colleges 1st semester grades

I’m sure this has been asked and answered, but I’m not finding it at a quick glance. I need to provide an update for DD’s fall senior year grades to both common app schools and one non-common app school (Georgetown). Can anyone advise how to do it?

My transcript only lists final year grades. Do I update the transcript and note in comments that grades are in process and only reflect first semester?  Or do I just creat another document like a report card showing fall semester grades only?

Any BTDT from Georgetown? They’re obviously not on Common App, so how/where do I send updated grades? I can email the admissions department next week, but I suspect they’re out-of-office this week for the holiday and I’m getting antsy!

Assuming this is the Georgetown you are referring to, they have a mid year school report section in their application portal

I inserted a footer in the transcript that says, “Midyear grade report” for this one, and I updated the date prepared/date signed fields. It seems to have been accepted everywhere.

Thank you. That is essentially what I did. I uploaded it to Common App, so all the CA schools have now received it. Our one non-CA school replied to our email with a fully non-sensical explanation of where/how to upload it (I’m assuming it was a student…who just didn’t read what they had written for clarity). Since the form we were supposed to submit had a snail mail address on it, I printed and mailed both the form and my mid-year transcript. They say they prefer electronic submission, but we couldn’t make it work. Oh well, it’s likely not going to be a do-able school for DD anyway, so we were just ready to complete it and be finished!
