Orders for Class of 2019 Final Transcripts Have Been Released as of Thursday, June 20, 2019!
Track your order and place more orders on the custom OHS-Parchment Portal ==>> click here for more details!
Common senior transcript ordering mistakes:
1. Assuming OHS places your order for you.
2. Assuming your college will request your transcript for you. Even if your college offers to do so, we do not honor any requests except from the student on Parchment.
3. Ordering a personal copy and forgetting to request a copy to go to your college. Be sure to order for EVERYONE waiting to see your final transcript! This includes NCAA or NCSA in the case of student-athletes registered with a athlete warehouse program.
4. Sending and OLD outdated copy from your personal Parchment archives INSTEAD of placing a NEW order.
5. Requesting a new order NOW and selecting "Hold for Grades" when you actually mean right NOW! You must place a NEW Order to SEND your new/current transcript.
6. Waiting until the last minute and wondering why your college won't give you your schedule or dorm key, because you didn't sent your final transcript.
7. Waiting until August 1st when the order fee kicks in for all high school graduates. Be sure to place your orders for FREE by July 30th in order to be processed by the FREE deadline of July 31st.
All new orders placed as of today, June 6th, must be immediate orders. In other words, please do not request Hold for Grades status because the order will be seen as a pre-order for next January 2020.
The recent end-of-year Hold for Grades window is now closed!
Classes of 2020, 2021, and 2022: Your transcripts will be available on Parchment next week - stay tuned for an announcement here.
FYI ~ Are you struggling with your final transcript ordering? Although Mrs. Pilon works in the summer months, PLEASE first review the very helpful transcript support online at www.ReachHigherOHS.org/Transcript. Most issues are resolved by the graduate once they watch the 2-3 minutes video. If help is still needed following your self-help attempts, then please contact me for additional support: 989-729-5495 or pilon@owosso.k12.mi.us
