How students view an unofficial transcript

userEducator Xello productXello 6-12 Time2 minutes

Once a transcript has been uploaded and matched to a student in Xello, students can access the unofficial version from their Xello account. This is a great chance for students to verify the information. This will also allow them to enter accurate information in applications that accept self-reported data. The transcript is viewable for students once it's been matched, regardless of whether they requested it.

noteNote: Visibility into their transcript is only available for students in 11th and 12th grade.
