Transcript*

• Freshmen: High school seniors should complete the transcript request form and submit it to their high school counselor, requesting that an official transcript be sent to ACU. After graduation, the applicant must provide a complete transcript showing all courses completed, the final class rank, and date of graduation. It is the applicant's responsibility to request the transcript to be sent to ACU.
• Transfers: College transfers must submit an official transcript from each college previously attended. Transfers must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or better and be eligible to return to the previous institution. A high school transcript will also be required.
