One homeschool mom told me you should always issue a transcript bc while your child may not be college bound at 18-19 there is no guarantee that they won’t want to take a few classes later in life. It’s so much easier to issue a transcript while the info is fresh rather then rushing around trying to put it together years later. I thought that was such a good reminder. I love your template this is amazing and will help so many families.
My daughter was homeschooled and we planned for her to attend public middle. It was awful. She was several years ahead academically and the school was too small to have any honors in middle. She has a beautiful transcript for the year she stayed, but she wanted to be homeschooled for 7th and 8th. I’m glad i found this as she needs a transcript for high school where there is access for honors and AP. They weren’t going to let her do honors or AP without a transcript from me. They wouldn’t just take test scores and her existing transcript. Arg!!! Thank you so much for showing me how to do this.
I just recently found your channel. It has been so incredibly helpful as my oldest is about to begin 9th grade. You have such great and informative videos!
Thank you so so much for this!! I'm graduating next Sunday, and my original transcript file got destroyed. I've been trying to remake it through excel all day. I found your video and templates and they are such a life-saver!!
Thank you so much! I am in Michigan and the GPA Scale is the same. I really appreciate all the hard work you have put into this to help other Homeschool families.
You are the bomb! thank you so much!! Finding how to write up a transcript is the hardest thing to find for some reason. I am so grateful I found you. Merry Christmas! Warmly, Christine
Thank you so much for all your share, and do, and for the sample template. It really helps to have an idea and framework to build from. May the Father bless you and your family.
It sounds like you do Classical Conversations. So are we. Is it possible for you to share your finished templates? That would give us a better idea on what to do.
We stopped CC after middle school, but I have templates in the description box of this video as well as another video where I share in detail her complete transcript.
Okay this is amazing! Thanks for making it available to other for use! I need to look into the gpa scale for VA. When I was in school it was a 4 point scale. I didn't even realize there was other options :-P
HI, thank you so much for this! How/Where should I indicate a school change for a student who started out in public school but ended high school as a homeschooler?
Hello, I just found your transcript and love it! I am not able to fill in the good document. How can I open it in Google or Excel to fill it in? Thank you!
Can you help me as far as my son did 9th and 10th grade in public school and then 11th and 12th with me. The thing is public school has 3 grades I guess for each quarter would I add them together and divide by 3 for their grades
Thank you! I have used both Christian and secular homeschooling materials. My daughter has had both formal and non-formal logic and we like to look at both sides of issues. We are a Christian family and we really didn’t use anything secular until middle school.
When I did cp it was college classes taught by professors but not in a college. Cp transfered as prerequisite for later classes in college like I did Chem 101 so I didn't have to retake it in college but I didn't get those college credits I just had to take higher sciences and math classes.
Sounds more like AP here, although a test is required and not all colleges accept AP courses for opting out of college classes. CP generally just means classes at a high enough level to prepare the student for college classes and eliminate the need for remedial classes in college or prior to entering college.
Thank you for making this series. We will be starting homeschool for the first time this year and I'm feeling overwhelmed! I have a son entering 10th grade and another in 8th grade. Both my husband and I work full time so I am desperately trying to find a curriculum(s) that will work for our family. Is it true that if my 10th grader does homeschool this school year, re-enrolling him next year will be problematic as some high schools do not accept homeschool curriculum? I have so many questions! (sigh!)
Each school district makes their own rules and will review the transcript to decide what they will accept and what they will not. Some districts also may require placement tests for certain classes as well. I would ask your school district prior to starting if that is a big concern for you. If you know for sure that this is only a one year decision and you will definitely do public school next year, it might be safer to do an online public school option this year so you do not have any worries next year. Wishing you the best on this school year!
You have to build an honors class from whatever curriculum you use. In general honors classes are harder work than regular college prep classes and also more work. Here's a video where I talk more about how honors classes work: ruclips.net/video/-xmaOb8dTC0/видео.html and here is a video where I talk about how I made our language arts program into honors classes: ruclips.net/video/DIAAhPugzqs/видео.html I hope this helps.

Hi! I'm having trouble editing the blank form because there are zeros at the end of each section. Why were those left blank for me to fill in? I'm trying to figure out how to get the zero out of there.
Is it advised to make a transcript for *only* high school credit years? Meaning, do i have to record their primary (elementary) years or only years where it’s necessary for documentation for college.
The transcript is only high school classes including high school level classes taken in middle school where a high school credit was earned. However, you should always keep a record of school work done each year in the early years too, in case you ever need to prove that you are providing a proper education.
Hi. Do colleges need to know if my student is an IEP student? If yes, where do I include it in the transcript. Thank you. I'm getting a lot of very helpful tips from this video. I am a small-time principal at my tiny school of 200 students. Greetings from Micronesia.
i need to modify my transcript to put the year in. The school year is too close to the Grade please help on trying to create space so i can have room to put school years through out
If you’re using the numbers file you can modify the column size. If you’re using the pdf, it can’t be modified but you could retype it into excel snd create something customized for you.
For some reason I can open the link to the transcript but I can not save it into google drive or google doc to edit. Can someone please Help. I really love this template if I could get it to work. Thank you
Thank you so much!!! God bless!!! I'm trying to homeschool and have no idea where to begin. I just started watching some of your videos. They are extremely helpful and important. Thank you so much!!!
There are a couple of versions-you probably downloaded the pdf version which can’t be edited. The other version is in Numbers for Mac, and it can be edited with a Mac. If you email me I can send it to you. Email is in the description box.
The transcript can be downloaded here: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dKc4uLoAfQgeys67CEHxJIf9TpsxE8Ov?usp=sharing It is available as an editable Mac Numbers file or as a pdf that you can recreate in whatever format you want. Click the link, select the file type, and then select download.
If you are homeschooled by parents, and lose your transcript.... how can you get another? My parents and all my grandparents have passed ( Im 42) and I lost everything in a fire 10 years ago. Ive been thinking of going to school now that my kids are high school and college age but have no idea how I would be able to do that. My baby book, my childrens baby books were destroyed and I was devastated by all of this. Does anyone have any advice? I just dont know what to do and the thought of never being able to go to school, I got married young and worked/raised my family-is depressing.
That’s something I’ve never considered before. I would think it could be recreated. Have you tried contacting HSLDA or a local homeschool association in your state? That’s where I would start.
How can colleges,companies and governing bodies verify that the transcript is geniune or fake. Because majority of the schools, competitive exams, job sectors, embassies they ask for verified documents, and without any kind of stamp from any institution it is really hard to move on.
You have to see what the policy is for each college for homeschool students as far as the documentation that they require. But they also use the SAT score as a way to show that the transcript is reasonable too.
hi c ! been watching you for years and somehow missed this very important video!! and as i sit here with DD going into 10th, i finally bit the bullet and started looking for a transcript video....and here you are!!! thank heavens for you and this doc you put together. i'm so non-tech it's embarrassing.. and now i'm gonna see if you have a "course description" video.

You can, but always keep in mind that all bets are off when transferring back to public school. They will decide which credits they will allow and what must be repeated and what grade your student will be placed in. I’ve heard stories of students doing well on placement tests yet still being forced to repeat a class because the school didn’t like the textbook used.

How to do schooling from o? Do you have typing classes.?
The first thing to do is find out your state’s homeschooling laws. Every state is different.
When I did cp it was college classes taught by professors but not in a college. Cp transfered as prerequisite for later classes in college like I did Chem 101 so I didn't have to retake it in college but I didn't get those college credits I just had to take higher sciences and math classes.

CP generally just means classes at a high enough level to prepare the student for college classes and eliminate the need for remedial classes in college or prior to entering college.
Thank you for sharing this! Is there a way to add more classes to a grade level section or delete an entire grade level on the PDF format? Thank you!
You’re welcome. If you are using the pdf and want to reformat it, you would need to type it into an editable program like Word or Excel.

You go to your state requirements on the department of education and follow that grading scale.

Where can you find your uniform grading scale conversion at? Who do you go to?
This was from the SC department of education. Go to your state’s department of Ed.

Did you keep records for middle and high school only?
No we are required to keep ferry records every year in SC. The transcript is just for high school level classes though.

You can, but always keep in mind that all bets are off when transferring back to public school.
