Sending transcripts out for apps...

<p>I'm basically done with everything on my apps but I haven't sent out my transcripts to the schools yet. Do I need to do this before I submit my application? (Do the schools have to receive them by the application deadline?)</p>

<p>How exactly do I give schools my transcripts? Should I ask my counselor to send them out to all the colleges I'm applying too or is it okay if I just make copies of my transcript and send them out myself.</p>

<p>For UC's, do I have to put other forms in the same envelope as the transcript or do I just send the transcript to the school's admission's office?</p>

<p>The schools will want an official transcript, so yes one from your counselor.</p>

<p>Most schools are fine if it’s received after the deadline - the deadline is for you, the applicant. They know you can’t control your teachers or counselors ;)</p>

<p>I have no clue about UCs.</p>

<p>So will my counselor know what to do for the UC’s (and the other schools) and already have all the forms to send the transcripts in?</p>

<p>Check with your GC, they will have a well-established procedure for this. Many schools send the transcript themselves, but some give sealed transcripts to the student and the student sends them.</p>
