    When I am looking online I find a lot of different types of transcripts.  Could anyone give some good do’s and don’t’s to making one up.

    Also, what if you don’t really have a ‘school’ name?  Do I just write “(last name)” school?

    I use Transcript Pro software.  They have helpful tips.

    HSLDA offers one: https://store.hslda.org/high-school-transcript-service-p262.aspx

    I’m trying to decide, too.

    @retrofam (or anyone): which Transcript Pro did you get? I like the choice of transcript types (i.e. semester, by subject, annual).

    How do you use it? It’s more expensive than HSLDA’s so I’d appreciate some first-hand accounts of someone’s experience with it.

    Thanks

    I bought mine 6 or 7 years ago, the basic version on cdrom at a homeschool convention.

    I enter the background information and subjects for each student,  and at the end of four years I use the program to check and print the transcript.  Each year I add the grades for the year, and the program figures their GPA.

    The program told me that I didn’t have any fine arts credits for my son, so I added them.  He did fine arts, I forgot to type them in.

    You can make a study of transcript creation, or like me-learn enough to get by and produce a credible-looking document with the help of software.

    I like that Transcript Pro allows me to use the product for many children and that it is offline.

     

    Hth!

    Yes, thank you. I like that it can be organized by subject and it handles all the figurin’ for me.

    I have a link to the free online transcript calculator we used here…
