What is a Program Outline and When do I Receive it?
Your program outline is a tool that lets you know what classes you will need to take to complete your degree plan. The program outline will also show how any transfer credit you may have earned has been applied to your degree plan. All students who are matriculated receive a program outline by email approximately 4-6 weeks from their matriculation date.

Who Requests Your Transcripts?
A transcript is a student's personal academic history. It is the student's responsibility to request the transcript for any military, CLEP/DANTES, international evaluations and/or High School/GED and have it sent to Saint Leo. The Admission department is responsible for requesting transcripts from all Regionally Accredited Institutions, once they receive your Transcript Release Form.

What defines an Official Transcript?
A transcript is considered official if it was issued within the past year and is sent directly from your previous institution to Saint Leo. We can also accept a transcript from the student if it was issued within the last year and remains in the original sealed envelope from the institution.

What is Considered Proof of High School Graduation?
Proof of high school graduation is required from all applicants who have not attended another regionally accredited institution. Saint Leo will accept one of the following documents:

• original transcripts or a notarized copy of the transcripts
• a notarized copy of your diploma or GED certificate (please do not send an original; it cannot be returned)
• verification on another official document such as a notarized copy of your DD214

Who receives my AP Grade Report? How can I have a copy sent to a college?
AP Grade Reports (transcripts) include your grades for all AP Exams you've ever taken. A copy of the report is automatically sent to you, your college (if you designated one on your answer sheet) and your school the July following the exam administration.
For more information, please visit www.collegeboard.org directly.

Clep/Dantes Information: This information appears at www.collegeboard.org.
At the time you take the exam, you can indicate in test software the college, employer, or certifying agency that you want to receive your CLEP test scores. There is no additional cost for this service — your exam fee covers it. If you haven't decided by the time you take the test which institution you want to receive your scores, leave that item blank.
For more information, please visit www.collegeboard.org directly.
