Hey peeps, I've heard a lot about mid-year reports but I'm not exactly sure what they are or what's included in them. Could someone clarify what goes into a mid-year report and who typically submits them to colleges? Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Hey there! A Mid-Year Report is a document that provides an update on your academic performance in your senior year of high school. It typically includes your first-semester or second-trimester grades from your senior year and is used by colleges to gauge your most recent academic progress.
Your high school counselor is usually the one who submits the Mid-Year Report to the colleges you're applying to. The submission is done through the Common Application or other application platforms, depending on the college's preference. Note that submission deadlines can vary, so you should check each college's requirements and communicate with your counselor to ensure timely submission.
It's essential to maintain strong academics during your senior year, as the Mid-Year Report can play a role in the college's decision-making process. Some colleges may even request additional information or updates on academic performance after the initial Mid-Year Report is submitted. Stay focused and diligent in your studies to ensure your application remains strong.
Good luck with the application process!
