About Private School Transcript Requests
Posted on: October 24, 2024
Private School Recommendation Process
- Application requests are due by Friday, December 6, 2024.
- We cannot guarantee that requests will be completed if your request is submitted after this deadline.
- Please plan and think about what the application requires and provide enough time for teachers and staff to get the required recommendations and evaluations.
- It will be at the teachers’ discretion if they have time to provide the requested documents for private school applications. Please have alternate teachers in mind. As noted below, please ask your student to talk to their teacher prior to submitting a request. Teacher emails can be found in our Staff Directory or by logging into your Source Page.
- If your private school application has a cover page or information that needs to be filled out by the applicant, please fill out student information prior to sending it to the Registrar. The registrar will send back these requests, and this may delay your application.
- There is no fee for processing transcripts.
