Guide to Ordering Official Transcripts

parchment.com Parchment Guide to Ordering Transcripts 20 Parent/guardian accounts WHAT IS A PARENT/GUARDIAN ACCOUNT? Parents and guardians can order high school transcripts for children under 18. They can do this by creating a parent/guardian account at Parchment.com . Parent/guardian accounts cannot be used to order college transcripts, and they cannot be used to order high school transcripts if the child is over 18. • Students under 18 can have their own account, but will need verbal parental/guardian consent. • More than one student can be added to the parent/guardian account. See ‘Add a child to a parent/ guardian account’ section below. • Existing student accounts may not be associated with a parent/guardian account. This means that once a student account has been set up, it cannot be tied to a parent/guardian account. • Once a student associated with a parent/guardian account turns 18, they must then create their own student account. • If two children attend the same school, the parent/guardian account would need to add that school twice - once for each student. A high school must be associated to each student. ADD A CHILD TO A PARENT/GUARDIAN ACCOUNT During the process of creating a parent/guardian account, you will add a child to your account.
