GRADING SCALE

HOW DO I SEND A TRANSCRIPT WITH MY COLLEGE APPLICATION?

This is a great question! Even better: I have the answer for you! There are two ways to have your transcript sent to the college or university that needs it for their application.

For colleges and universities in North Carolina, you will need to go to http://www.cfnc.org.

If you do not have an account, you will need to make one.

You will need your PowerSchool #.

Under Transcript Manager, you will see directions on how to send your transcript.

For colleges, universities, scholarships, military, etc., please come to Student Services and fill out the Transcript Request Form. You will need to know the address of where you would like your transcript sent.
