What’s in a Transcript?

A transcript is one of the most important documents when applying to college. College applications may require you to send a high school transcript to ensure you have taken the necessary courses. Visit your high school counselor’s office or registrar to request a copy be sent to you and the colleges you would like to attend.

A transcript is the record of your courses with your grades. A transcript is used in college admissions and can be requested by other organizations like a scholarship fund.

Your ACT or SAT test scores may appear on your transcript and are often noted for not only gaining admission, but also access to scholarship opportunities.

Your student information can vary, but in this case your personal information (birthdate, gender) and counselor information is listed. Bear David Young er: 0000123 Student Numb 12 de: Gra

Unweighted Grade Point Average (GPA) is measured on a scale 0 to 4.0 and does not take into account the difficulty of the courses. So an A in advanced English is the same as an A a low-level English class.

Weighted GPA is calculated using a system that assigns a higher point value to grades in more difficult classes. High schools can assign the value of 5.0 for an A earned in an advanced course to reflect the difficulty of such a course.

You typically receive one credit for the successful completion of a single course in high school. Colleges require students to complete a minimum number of credits to graduate. The amount of credits a class is worth depends on the amount of time and work that you will earn during the class.

An official transcript includes a student’s academic record. Colleges may request an official transcript, which means a transcript could be a sealed envelope delivered from the school to the recipient with the Registrar’s signature. The transcript could be signed or notarized with a seal.
