Question
A college has requested my 7Th trimester transcripts.They say my file is complete for admissions review.Do you know what this might mean?
When you originally applied to the college, you didn't include the grades for your most recent semester/quarter/trimester, because it hadn't finished yet. Now that it is over, you have more grades that you need to report to them. Have the school send a copy of your most recent transcript (which will include all the grades) to that college. It should be mailed directly by the school and include an official stamp on the enveloped seal so they know it hasn't been opened or tampered with.
