Final transcript mailed where?

For seniors matriculating to UMD, where do we send the final transcript?

And does it matter if the return address is our HS or our home?

I believe you're supposed to bring a copy of your transcript to orientation this summer. Do they need another official copy mailed to admissions?

You only need a transcript for Orientation if you took college classes in high school that may give you credit for a prereq and it's not on your UMD transcript yet (esp Math/Science). Otherwise, I think final transcripts go to Undergraduate Admissions in the Mitchell Building.

Um, you don't get credit for college courses based on what classes you took in HS. You get it based on your AP scores.

I was talking about students who take community college classes during high school.

Also, if you're in ARHU, you have a foreign language requirement that can be waived if you took up to level 4 in high school, and you can skip level 1 of many languages if your high school transcripts show that you took 3 years of a language.
