Transcripts

Application Transcript: Colleges will require some version of your transcript at the time you apply. Options are: • Self-reported academic record. Colleges require you to enter all of your classes and grades directly into the college application. Some schools that use a ‘self-report’ system are University of IL, University of Iowa, Iowa State U, University of MN and the University of California system. • Official Sixth Semester Transcript. All official transcript requests for non-Common Application Schools should be made through www.parchment.com. Use this link to create a Parchment account and to request an official transcript. Directions on how to set-up a Parchment account can be found on the Counseling page of the BHS website or in the Student Services office.

• For Common App Schools, you will invite your counselor as a recommender and they will send your transcript along with your school report and letter of recommendation.

MID-YEAR/SEVENTH SEMESTER TRANSCRIPT

Some schools will request a seventh semester transcript (or mid-year report), before making admission decisions. For Common Application Schools, you may need to request your midyear transcript by completing a Mid Year Transcript Request Form. Once completed, email this form to your counselor. All non Common App mid-year transcript requests should be made through Parchment.com.

FINAL TRANSCRIPT

In May, seniors must request their Final Transcript be sent to the college to which they have enrolled. The Final Transcript verifies completion of all high school courses and grades and provides confirmation of high school graduation. Colleges typically require final transcripts by July 1st. Transcripts required by fraternities, sororities and scholarship organizations must be requested separately through Parchment.
