Current HCPSS Students
Requesting Transcripts for College Applications
HCPSS uses Naviance to manage requests for transcripts, as well as to submit them to colleges and universities on behalf of current students. All current HCPSS high school students have an account in Naviance.
To request a transcript through Naviance:
- Complete a Waiver of Rights and Release of Records form, granting HCPSS permission to release transcripts, including mid-year reports, letters by school based staff, and other student records to be released to a third party.
- Select the college to which you are applying, the application deadline, and the type of application you are using.
- Click “Add and Request Transcript.”
- Repeat the process for all colleges/universities to which you are applying.
If you need transcripts as part of your college application, be aware of the following deadlines. Please note that these dates are the last possible day to complete your requests. Students are encouraged to submit all material as early as possible.

January 15, 2024 | December 9, 2023 |
*Because this college application deadline occurs during Winter Break, requests for transcripts must be made in 20 days prior to the last school day before the Break.
Keep in mind that transcripts will not be sent until:
- You add the “Colleges I’m Applying To” tab in Naviance
- The Common App is matched with Naviance
- Your Common App schools are added to your Common App account
You can see the status of your transcript request by logging into Naviance and going to “Colleges I’m Applying” to Tab. It will show pending, submitted or downloaded by the college.
Requesting Transcripts for Purposes Other Than Applying to College
Students who need an official transcript for a purpose other than applying to college (i.e.: internship, scholarships, jobs, military, athletics) should visit their school’s Canvas page or speak directly to their school’s registrar.
Obtaining Unofficial Transcripts
Students can obtain unofficial transcripts by going to hcpss.me, logging into Synergy using their active directory, and looking under “report cards.”
