Transcripts
Official transcripts can be sent beginning the week of September 6.
Of all the factors considered in the college application process, the high school transcript is the one that carries the most weight. Each college determines the way in which they want to receive your transcript.
Parchment Transcript Order System
An official high school transcript may be required by colleges, scholarship organizations, employers, the military, etc. either during high school or in the future. Parchment is the transcript order system used by District 214 students and alumni to request official transcripts.
Refer to this Parchment video for instructions on ordering transcripts and monitoring when transcripts are sent/received by a college.
How to Print Your Unofficial Transcript
Unofficial transcripts are often accepted for scholarships and admission at some colleges.

Follow these instructions to download your unofficial transcript in Infinite Campus
Types of Transcripts
Initial Transcript: Transcript with grades for all semesters completed when you apply (usually through junior year if you apply in fall of senior year).
Mid-Year Transcript: Transcript with first semester senior year grades.
Final Transcript: Transcript with all senior year grades and proof of graduation.
Unofficial Transcript: Transcript that a student can download and send on their own. This is not sent from a school official but is still accepted for scholarships and some college admissions.
How to Send Quarter Grades
Some colleges require a quarter grade report. Since these are not official grades, they cannot be sent through Parchment.
Students can download a pdf copy of their quarter grade report in Infinite Campus. To access them, click on Documents from the left tab. Then select under the Report Card heading.
How to Send a MID YEAR TRANSCRIPT
Some colleges require a mid-year report, mid-year transcript or seventh semester grades.
ALL mid year transcripts should be requested through Parchment (even if your counselor sent your initial transcript through the Common App).
In Parchment, you will indicate HOLD FOR GRADES if you enter the request before first semester grades are finalized. This will allow our registrar to send the transcript after first semester grades are finalized and posted.
If you are unsure if you need to send a mid-year transcript, check with the admissions office of the college. This is mostly required by schools who have not yet released an admissions decision.
How to Send a FINAL TRANSCRIPT
All colleges require a final transcript. This includes your senior year grades and proof of graduation.
ALL final transcripts should be requested through Parchment (even if your counselor sent your initial transcript through the Common App).
In Parchment, you will indicate HOLD FOR GRADES if you enter the request before graduation. This will allow our registrar to send the transcript after transcripts are finalized.
See Parchment Instructions above for help with creating your account and/or requesting transcripts.
Dual Credit Transcripts
You will need to send a transcript from each of the colleges where you have received dual credit to the college where you enroll. Some colleges may ask for these dual credit transcripts when you apply.
