When you are applying to a college, you want to make sure you are requesting on Xello to send your mid-year transcript to that college so they can see your academic record.
This is extremely important because your transcript is a required document that colleges will need in order to give you admission to their college.
Click here to learn how to navigate on Xello to request a transcript:
On Xello, go to the "Plans" tab at the top
Then click "College Planning"
Then you'll have to create a quick application for the college you are applying to. Under the pink section titled "College Applications", click "Create your first application".
You'll then type and search up the college you are wanting to send your transcript to.
Sometimes the name of the college is different from what you usually call it, so if you search it and it doesn't come up, play around with the spelling.
Once you find the college, select it and click the blue "Next" button on the bottom right.
From there, you'll need to add details to your application.
Application Methos - You can indicate what type of application you submitted. This could either be a direct application, an application through the common app, or anything else.
Admission Type - Then you'll choose what type of admission you're applying for. It could be a regular admission, early admission, rolling admission, etc.
Application Deadline - This is a deadline that you set for yourself to complete the application process. If there is a specific deadline you need to meet, go ahead and indicate that. But if there isn't a deadline you need to meet, you can choose one for yourself, I encourage you to give yourself a week or more of a deadline.
Once you completed step 6, you can click the blue "Create" button on the bottom right.
From there, it'll take you to the created application that you just made. Now, to request your transcript to be sent, you'll scroll down to the section titled "Application Checklist".
Next to the "Transcript" section, to the right of it, you'll click the button "Request".
You'll check the circle "Mid-Year" and hit the blue "Send request" button.
