Now that we are at the end of  high school, I have been paying more attention to creating a transcript and assessing grades.  I want to make sure that I have covered the basics and provided a transcript that most colleges will accept.  If you need help with credit hours and the basics of a transcript, see this file first:  HEO Credit Hours

Another really good article is this one published by The Old Schoolhouse Magazine.  Eclectic Homeschool Online has a page that tells you how to create a transcript.  They also have a sample here and one that you can fill out in your browser and print.

If you would like to use a software program other than Word or Excel, consider:  EdPlus or Transcripts Made EasyHomeSchool Tracker Plus also provides grades and a finished transcript.

Here are a few transcripts I like.  Feel free to download the samples linked below:

Donna Young has the best selection of transcript forms and other record keeping materials on the web.  And they are FREE!

Our High School Transcript

My son has decided on the college he would like to attend.  They have no special requirements for home schoolers, but do ask that you prepare a document that explains to them how you have home educated.  I have created a small portfolio to go along with the following documents:

  • Narrative Evaluation - Assessment along with a list of courses and their credit values

  • Book List - Includes all the HEO books we have read along with other books 

  • Traditional Transcript - a concise summary in a format most colleges expect to see
