it is a public high school.
@MYOS1634
it is per college and they told me they would send the transcript electronically.
It is also a reason I tried to find out what incremental expense will a high school incur if a student were to add an additional college. From everything I read here is that it is “one upload” for common app. However, will it make a difference if a student identifies all colleges one time or add individual college every few days. If it were the latter, does it mean that the GC would have to click update (or submit) each time the student update the college list? Will the GC receive individual transcript request mail messages (it will mean time to read the mail)?
BTW, is it even upload to the common app? as I understand the GC does not have access to the student’s common app, right? I heard it was Naviance “linked” to the common app. How does it work?
@thumper1 I am not going to discuss whether we will be looking for need-based aid as I think it is irrelevant here. First, your calculation on post #20 is off. Second, I do not see how the determination of whether a charge is reasonable depends on my ability to pay. Therefore, if I were able to pay $200 per transcript, is $200 per transcript reasonable? As in post #52, we look into whether it is “reasonable and customary”.
@“aunt bea” nice story (post #61), I wonder which 30 private scholarship the student applied to. One thing is clear that there was a lack of planning for the school which had to rush to get the transcript out last minute.
@blossom good for you for your view of LIFE.
