Homeschool Transcripts

Homeschool transcripts are detailed records of coursework and activities your student completed while in high school.

Your teen will need to submit transcripts to anyone who needs to evaluate his or her high school performance, such as scholarship committees, colleges and universities, trade schools, the military and potential employers. As such, make sure your teen's home school transcript is typed, well-organized, and free of typos, grammar and spelling errors.

To prepare your teen's transcripts, begin by stating his or her full name, gender, date of birth, social security number, address, telephone number, parents' name and school year.

Next, list the courses your child took during his or her freshman, sophomore, junior and senior years, along with a grade for each course. Then, calculate your teen's GPA for each year, along with a cumulative GPA for all 4 years.

If your child has significant nonacademic accomplishments, you may also include a separate page listing extracurricular activities, volunteerism, outside employment and awards.

Here are two forms you can use to create your homeschool transcripts by entering your information in the spaces provided. To change the headings, subject titles, grades and descriptions, simply place your cursor over the text you want to change and begin typing.
