Requesting Transcripts• Transcripts should be requested two weeks in
advance in the Career Center from Mrs. Dozier by YOU, the student.
• No phone calls or email requests.• A request sent by a college or Common App
will not suffice.• Transcripts must be “official” (mailed by the
school).• Free until you graduate!• You will need to obtain the name & address of
the school or admissions office.
