Homeschool Transcripts
An official transcript should be sent to our office for graduates from homeschool programs. This will be accepted in lieu of the Electronic High School Grade Verification and in lieu of counselor certification of the HELP Core Curriculum. If you are unable to request an official homeschool transcript from your program, one may be submitted by the homeschool administrator.
The official homeschool transcript must:
- Be signed and notarized
- Include all courses attempted, completed, in progress, and to be completed
- Include an unweighted GPA on a 4.0 scale
NOTE: By submitting a signed and notarized transcript, applicants certify the transcript includes a complete and accurate list of the courses attempted, completed, in progress, and to be completed. A subsequent signed and notarized transcript may be submitted to report an improved GPA, but no course-related changes on the subsequent transcript will be considered.
Transcripts should be mailed or emailed if using an electronic transcript service.
