February

Check your Cal State portals to see if they are requesting Official College Transcripts.  Sometimes, they will also use the term “partial” transcripts. The term “partial” means that you are still attending Crafton. See the video for step-by-step directions on ordering Official College Transcripts. This video will also show you how to order Final Transcripts. Final Transcripts simply means that you are done with your classes and all grades have been posted.  You will want to order IGETC or CSUGE certification with your final transcripts.

  • Make sure these transcripts are also on file with admissions and records for your graduation application.

Were you denied admission from the campus you applied to?

  •  Most denial emails provide instructions and a link to put in an appeal.

  • If you decide to submit an appeal, most universities give you less than 15 business days to do so. Appeals usually consist of completing an online form and uploading documents. It is a quick process, but please reach out to the University Transfer Center as soon as you receive the notification so we can help you.

  • Attend an I’ve Been Denied, What Now? Workshop to help with those last details to help transfer successfully

Do you have AP scores?

  • If you put AP scores in the application, the university will be asking for these. You must send the scores directly from College Board to the university. If you do not do this, it could hinder your admission into the university.
