<p>I am a senior in high school applying to colleges now. I was in a month-long summer program at Johns Hopkins University over the summer called "Engineering Innovation." I received an 'A' in the course, so I earned 3 transferable credits for the course called "What is Engineering?" I was technically partially enrolled in the University because I got a student account where I could access blackboard and ISIS and all that.
So I really need to know whether or not I need to send my transcript from JHU (in addition to my high school transcript) to the colleges that I am applying to. I've reported the course on my application. I just realized that colleges might be expecting to see a transcript for it, so for the two early action colleges that I am applying to, I submitted a transcript request about 3 days ago, but it cost $27.50 for each school. Do I really have to do this for all my RD colleges???</p>
<p>Yes you need to send the transcript to each and every place you are applying to.</p>
<p>Not only that, but for the rest of your life whenever you apply to admission to a degree program at an accredited college or university in the US, or for a job that requires all of your academic records, you will have to have this transcript sent.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Or matriculate to, in the case of schools that trust self-reported courses and grades on the application but want matriculating students to send transcripts to verify those self-reported courses and grades.</p>
<p>True. But the OP needs to verify that policy with each place on his/her list.</p>
<p>argggggg! This really sucks… There is no way that I can afford to send all those transcripts. It would cost $357.50! What should I do???</p>
<p>Email the colleges, let them know about this course. Ask if they will accept self-reported grades.</p>
<p>If none of them will, sit down with your college list and cut out some of the fat.</p>
