End of Yr Transcript?

<p>Does BU require an end of the year high school transcript?</p>

<p>Yes BU requires an end of year transcript...and there is a deadline for its receipt (sometime in July) or you can lose your finaid and place in the class...SO make sure that your HS sends that final transcript ASAP after graduation.</p>

<p>Hey... do we need to send our transcripts in with a special sheet or something? I can't find anything on the website...</p>

<p>Your school must send the transcript...not you. Just make sure that they send it!!</p>

<p>Wish someone had a link to which address we send these to.</p>

<p>They requested my transcript and I faxed it the next day with a letter saying I would accept their offer. Later that day I was admitted. I'm a transfer so I dunno.</p>

<p>Your final transcript gets mailed BY YOUR HIGH SCHOOL to the college at which you were accepted. The high school sends it and they will know where it goes. At BU it goes to the Office of Admissions. Anything you mail to them yourself is not considered an "official" transcript.</p>

<p>Does anyone know is our high school sends us a copy of our transcript? I kinda wanna see what my final GPA and rank turn out to be.</p>

<p>don't they put that on your final report card for you?</p>

<p>You need to check with your school regarding transcripts. At our High School, you only get a copy of your transcript if you request one. I would suggest that ALL students do this to make sure that the information on the transcript is CORRECT. DS's transcript (yes, the one sent to BU) had another person's photo on it. DD's had the wrong GPA. You should ask for and CHECK your transcripts.</p>

<p>Funny story about checking your transcripts: when my school calculated our mid-year rankings and GPAs, they screwed up. They then send the miscalculated data out to our colleges. When they realized the error, they tried to keep it from everyone. They refused to tell us what they sent out or resend the info. The secretary told us that the rankings didn't matter anyway. Mind you, in this particular year, we had quite a few seniors applying to Ivies and whatnot.</p>

<p>We weren't happy.</p>

<p>QUESTION:</p>

<p>How do we confirm that BU gets the final transcript? Does it say anywhere on the website or should we call them?</p>

<p>I will tell you that if they DON'T receive it, you will hear from them. DS got a letter in July saying his hadn't arrived.</p>

<p>If you're worried, give your school a call.</p>
