At the time of registration, you should have a credit card available and be prepared to establish a PIN (personal identification number).

Please print the "NCAA Transcript Release Authorization 1" form and the "NCAA Transcript Release Authorization 2" form, sign both and bring them to your guidance counselor.

Getting on track is a MAJOR component of the entire process. Make sure that you have the grades and credits from your “Core” classes. Don’t wait until your Senior year to do this. Be on top of this early to save yourself from stress.
