Penn, Cornell, Columbia secondary school report?

<p>I just want to make sure that these schools don't require secondary school report. anyone knows?</p>

<p>Yeah, I think they do. Just check the respective websites where they list the components of a transfer app.</p>

<p>This is directly copied from the official web
[Penn</a> Admissions: F.A.Q. for Transfer Admission to Penn](<a href=“http://www.admissions.upenn.edu/applying/transferfaq.php]Penn”>http://www.admissions.upenn.edu/applying/transferfaq.php)</p>

<p>A. To apply as a transfer student Penn requires:</p>

<ul>
<li>Application forms located at The Common Application website, or at The Universal College Application website along with the University of Pennsylvania Application Supplement.</li>
<li>The Application includes two required essays and lists of your extra-curricular activities in both high school and college. The Application also includes the College Official’s Report demonstrating the student is in good academic and disciplinary standing at their current school.</li>
<li>The Penn Application Supplement includes the Form 4, the Mid-Term Grade Report for Transfer Students, which indicates current courses being taken during the Spring semester.</li>
<li>The SAT Reasoning Test. The ACT Test with Writing is also acceptable.</li>
<li>An official copy of your current college and all previous college transcripts.</li>
<li>An official copy of your high school transcript.</li>
<li>Two recommendations from current college professors.</li>
</ul>

<p>it doesn’t state that Penn requires secondary school report here. help plz I am confused.</p>

<p>If it doesn’t say you need it, you don’t. I was confusing the SSR for your high school transcripts etc.</p>

<p>When in doubt, just call the admissions office and clarify which forms you need.</p>

<p>oooh i see. thanks for the clarification!</p>

<p>So what’s the final word on the three schools? </p>

<p>Penn doesn’t list the secondary school report as requirement, but it’s on their CommonApp under “School Forms” – same goes for Cornell – which makes me wonder if kids send them in.</p>

<p>If we lack a verdict, I’ll just call them up tomorrow.</p>

<p>i didn’t send cornell the secondary school report, only the school profile and my transcript. i called and asked</p>

<p>Thanks, ironicallyunsure. What is a school profile, though? Is the counselor supposed to attach that automatically?</p>

<p>it shows average gpas and test scores, things like that. i asked them to attach one cause i wasn’t sure if they did it automatically</p>

<p>what is the Secondary School Report and what makes it different from the transcript???</p>

<p>Your HS transcript contains a list of your classes and grades. Now take a look at the SS Final Report and see the additional information it asks for.</p>

<p>Closing old thread.</p>
