High School Transcripts

All Applicants:

  • Official high school transcripts are required of all applicants, including transfer students and students who have not yet graduated at the time of application.
  • The transcripts must be official with an original signature of school official(s) or the school seal on the transcript and sent directly from the school or submitted in an envelope sealed by the school.
  • Transcripts must be mailed to Pepperdine University at the address listed below.  Please note: Faxed copies are NOT accepted.
  • Additional instructions based on applicant status are listed below.  Please make sure to read and follow all applicable instructions.

Official transcripts may be sent to the following address:

High School Seniors:

  • A cumulative sixth-semester transcript (through grade 11) must be submitted at the time of application.
  • If accepted, the final transcript with graduation date listed must be submitted prior to enrollment.

Transfer Students and High School Graduates:

  • The official, cumulative high school transcript submitted must indicate the date of high school graduation.

International Students:

  • High school transcripts in a language other than English must also be official and must be accompanied by an official English translation.

Alternative Applicants:

  • In addition to the official high school transcript indicating any completed course work, applicants who did not graduate from high school must also submit official GED (General Educational Development) or CHSPE (California High School Proficiency Examination) documentation indicating a passing score.

Home-Schooled Applicants:

  • If any portion of the high school course work was completed at a traditional high school, an official transcript of that work must be submitted.
  • If a transcript for work completed as a home-schooled applicant is not available, official GED or CHSPE documentation indicating a passing score must be submitted.  Additionally, official documentation should be submitted indicating the curriculum followed and grades obtained.
  • Please note: Due to the non-traditional nature of this type of schooling, applicants are expected to demonstrate academic proficiency through strong SAT I or ACT scores.

Non-Degree Applicants:

  • Official final high school transcript with graduation date is required if a student has completed less than 30 college units. If 30 units or more have been completed, no final high school transcript will be required. College transcripts from all colleges attended are required.
