High School Transcripts

I’m in a major pickle! I’ve been accepted into both UCD and UCSD, and I feel that I have made a terrible mistake and it will cause my offer to be revoked.

I got an e-mail from UCD to report my scanned unofficial transcript to them, which I’m getting from the transcript lady tomorrow and doing right away. I got this after reporting changes to my coursework, as I only included my academic classes except for Biology(9th grade-got an A) and Art(9th grade-A), as well as Art(10th-A) and Animation(10th-A). I have no problem uploading my transcript;however, my questions and concerns follow.

I looked over my transcript from my Texas HS and realized that they didn’t include the courses I took at my California HS(which I attended for a little under a month, and due to some factor in California registration that I don’t recall…the school wasn’t able to get my CAHSEE scores reported or give me access to the student portal, I was there for so short that it didn’t add up to a term). My Texas HS took 5 courses from my California HS during my sophomore year (History,Math,Science,English, Spanish 3) and converted them from an alphabetical to numerical scale for the corresponding courses offered at my Texas HS along with making them Pre-ap (they only offered standard/regular at the CA HS), and averaging out the grades with the grade I earned for the rest of the grading period. Two courses (culinary-offered in TX, did not take; wood shop-not offered) were converted into my animation and art grades in the same fashion.

I earned “A’s” in all my CA courses, but since my Texas HS adjusted them to match their records…I didn’t see my California HS show up and I didn’t attend long enough to report it as a term so I was unsure of how I would report it.

I’ve e-mailed the transcript lady at my Texas HS and will be talking with her tomorrow as well as receiving an unofficial transcript to upload. I called up the California HS as soon as I realized this and left a message and an e-mail;however, they are on spring break so if they are able to supply me with a transcript, I won’t be able to update my info regarding those courses until next week.

Question: Because I didn’t report my California HS with it’s courses (not carried out for a term as they were converted to my Texas HS courses), but they were all “A’s”, will my admission offer be revoked for this and/or for my changes regarding freshman and sophomore year other than this confusing situation? Thanks guys, I’m way too stressed…I can’t sleep. I’m calling up both the UC’s tomorrow to notify them.

Congrats on your admittance.

You are going to have to be sure the record is correct. I’d make an appointment, bring printed copies and lay it out for them. If you got As in all the classes you omitted - you certainly weren’t trying to cover up poor performance. I think they will understand - as long as you bring it to their attention before they discover it …
Good luck

@NCalRent, I can’t make an appointment as an out-of-state…but I did reply through the link they have sent me and sent my unofficial HS transcripts from BOTH schools to UCD through the e-mail in which they sent me.

@NCalRent Sorry, another thing. I just did the same with San Diego;however, it is not as easy to update on UCSD as it is UCD. Also, as far as I was informed I put my PAP down as honors but distinguished them from my APs, except for my freshman year…when I asked the lady at UCD she said that I shouldn’t have to worry since they only count AP courses as honors, so if I marked my PAP it should be ignored. I think I’m safe, I just don’t want to stress.

Sounds like you’ve done what you can do.
