You can also print an unofficial transcript in IC for your records but please make sure to do so before July 1. You may need to refer back to your grades for a future job interview or Rush, etc.

• Senior Student/parent accounts will be deactivated some time in July. This includes IC, Naviance, and Google. Anything students want to save in Google will need to be moved ASAP. Students will want to download a copy of Immunization Records and the Unofficial Transcript to keep for records BEFORE July 1st.
