High School Transcripts 

Columbus State receives transcripts electronically through the following third-party services: Credentials, National Student Clearinghouse, Naviance, Parchment, SchooLinks, Scribonline (Scribbles). To request a transcript using electronic delivery:

• Contact your high school/district and ask which third-party service they use
• Through that service’s website, request that the transcript be sent to Columbus State Community College at this email address: highschooltranscript@cscc.edu.

Please note: We cannot accept transcripts sent from a student or personal email account. Documents must come directly from an official source.

If electronic delivery is not possible, transcripts can be sent from the school or third-party service through U.S. Mail to:

Columbus State Community College
ATTN: High School Transcripts
550 East Spring Street
Columbus, OH 43215

Please note: Transcripts must be received in an original, sealed envelope from the issuing school or third-party service to be considered official.

Transcripts in an original, sealed envelope from the issuing school or third-party service can be delivered in-person to the following locations during business hours:

• Columbus Campus: Student Central, Upper Level, Madison Hall
• Delaware Campus: Student Services, Moeller Hall

Please note: Final transcripts must include the student's graduation date. If delivering a copy in-person, please make sure to communicate that with your school ahead of time since the envelope will be sealed.

Each Ohio homeschool transcript must be accompanied by a copy of the school district superintendent's written acknowledgment that the home education notice for the student's final year was received.

Students homeschooled outside of Ohio, in states that do not offer the official notice and acknowledgment documentation, must submit the  Out-of-State Homeschool Self-Certification Form along with the homeschool transcript. 

Homeschool transcripts must include all the following elements:

• Student Name
• Date of Birth
• Student Address
• Name of Homeschool with Address (Street, City, State)
• Courses taken (listed by grade level and year completed)
• Grades for each course
• Cumulative Grade Point Average
• Date of High School Graduation
• Dated Signature of person designated as the homeschool administrator

Homeschool administrators may choose to email highschooltranscript@cscc.edu with the transcript and accompanying required document(s) as attachments.

Students who completed high school overseas and would like to submit proof of that work to Columbus State Community College, should reference this page for more information: Evaluation of Foreign High School Transcripts.

GED transcripts can be sent electronically or by U.S. mail using the instructions on this page: GED Transcript Information.

A High School Transcript Request Form may be useful when requesting a transcript from a high school.

Other transcript-related resources and information are available on his page: Transcripts.

For a transcript to be considered final and official, the following requirements should be met:

• “Final” transcripts include a graduation date and final GPA; students preparing to graduate from high school should talk to their high school counselor and request that their official, final transcript be sent to Columbus State as soon as they have graduated.
• “Official” transcripts are printed on official paper with an official seal and/or official signature and are received from the issuing school or third-party service directly, either electronically, or in the original, sealed envelope if in-person or by U.S. mail. Envelopes cannot be opened prior to being submitted.
• Transcripts sent from a personal/student email account with the document attached or included are not considered “official.”
• Transcripts sent by fax are not considered "official."

If your high school is permanently closed, please contact your district’s administrative office to order a transcript. If that’s not an option, please contact the Department of Education in the state from which you graduated for guidance. Please email highschooltranscript@cscc.edu with any additional questions.
