Students Entering from High School

Ask your school counselor to send an official transcript, including senior year courses in which you are currently enrolled, to the Undergraduate Admissions Office. SAT I/ACT scores should also be sent to this office. (All public universities in North Carolina require scores for the writing section of the SAT or ACT. The writing section of the test is included with the SAT, but if you are taking the ACT you must make sure to register for the "ACT Plus Writing”.) If you attend summer school at a college or university after graduation, request that an official transcript be sent to the Undergraduate Admissions Office at the close of summer school. High School seniors who have taken classes at a college/university need to send all college transcripts to Admissions.

Freshman students: You must present a Financial Certificate completed by your sponsor or a copy of your I-1551 ("Green Card"). Transfer students: You must present a Visa Clearance Form completed by the International Student Advisor at your current school and a photocopy of your I-20, I-94, and Visa page of your passport. Transfer students must also present a Financial Certificate completed by your sponsor.

High School Transcripts



Some North Carolina public high schools have the capability to electronically send official high school transcripts when you apply online. We encourage you to visit your school counselor to verify coursework and grades prior to requesting an electronic transcript.

To send an electronic transcript, you must:

  • Complete this online application.
  • Make sure you have entered the following information in your profile and/or application:
    • First and last name
    • Date of birth
    • NCWise ID (Your NCWise ID is your public high school student identifier number. Providing the NCWise ID is voluntary and if provided will give you the opportunity to request your high school transcript electronically)
    • Gender
    • Current high school
    • E-mail address
  • Be currently enrolled at a participating public high school in North Carolina (one that has converted from the SIMS system to NCWISE to manage student data). If you are not sure about your school, check with your school counselor or office staff.
If these conditions were met when you submitted your application, you will then be presented with the option of sending your high school transcript electronically to that school.
