You must upload a current or recent unofficial transcript to submit your application. To be eligible, you must have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.75, as reflected on your transcript. If your high school or college does not issue grades, you are exempt from the GPA requirement.
Not sure where to find your transcript? Use the resources below or contact a guidance counselor or academic advisor for help.
Your transcript must include:
- 1. Your first and last name.
- 2. The name of the high school or college you most recently
- 3. Your most recent cumulative GPA, unless your school does not issue grades.
- 4. All pages of the transcript.
Grade reports will not be accepted as transcripts.
Which transcript should you upload?
The transcript you need to submit depends on whether you are currently in high school, college, or pursuing a GED.
- High school seniors: Upload a current high school transcript that includes at least one completed term from your senior year. Upload your high school transcript even if you participate in dual credit or Running Start.
- GED students: Upload your transcript showing a passing GED score. If you haven’t earned your GED yet, check the box in the application indicating that you’ll provide your score by June 30.
- College students: Upload your most recent college transcript. It must include your most recently completed term and show a cumulative GPA of at least 2.75. If you are enrolled in college but have not completed a college term yet, upload your high school transcript instead.
How to access your high school or GED transcript
School districts are required to keep student records for at least 50 years, so you should be able to request your transcript even if you graduated many years ago.
If you need to request a transcript, these resources can help:
- Contact your school district office using the Washington School District Directory
- Order your transcript through Parchment, an online transcript request service.
- If you earned a GED, request your record through the GED Testing Service
