Obtaining a high school transcript?

I'm applying to college soon and I'll need my high school transcript. How do I go about getting it? Do I talk to my guidance counselor or is there an online resource I can use?

Great question! To obtain your high school transcript, you'll typically need to contact your school's guidance counselor or main office. Start by checking with your guidance counselor. They should be able to either provide you with a copy of your transcript or direct you on how to request it. If your school has an online portal, you may also be able to access your transcript there, but it's always good to verify the process with your guidance counselor.

Some schools might use a third-party service, such as Parchment, for managing and sending transcripts. If this is the case at your school, you'll need to create an account on the respective platform and follow the steps to request your transcript. Just remember, always consult your guidance counselor if you have any doubts or questions about obtaining your transcript.

Best of luck with your college applications! Don't hesitate to ask for help throughout the process, as your guidance counselor and teachers are there to support you.
