  • Official District Transcripts
    Official District Transcripts Important Transcript Request Information via www.GAfutures.org District students request transcripts for Board of Regents (in-state) universities and colleges and Technical College System of Georgia technical colleges through their My GAfutures account on GAfutures. Once a student makes this request, the counselor reviews and fulfills this request electronically. After the counselor fulfills the request, the transcript(s) is delivered to the postsecondary school(s) that the student has authorized/requested. The MyGAfutures account should not be used by students who need transcripts sent to NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association). This feature is currently unavailable in GAfutures. Seniors use this process. In addition, district students interested in a Dual Enrollment/Move On When Ready opportunity also use this process. Very Important: Final transcripts for Seniors (early to mid-June) will be sent to in-state schools through the MyGAfutures transcript(s) request process. Therefore, a Senior must request the final transcript for in-state schools using his/her MyGAfutures account to request that the final transcript is “fulfilled” by his/her school counselor. Seniors are to only request that a paper copy of the official transcript be processed when the purpose of the transcript is to meet admissions requirements for out-of-state college or university, to complete documentation for a scholarship(s), and/or to provide to a potential employer or the military. Any transcript questions/issues should be addressed by the student with the school counselor. HOPE Transcripts HOPE transcripts are available for all district students within 30 days of the close of each semester after transcript history is posted to district transcripts.

  • Georgia Higher Learning and Earnings
    Georgia Higher Learning and Earnings David Evans II January 2017 Executive Summary By 2025, over 60 percent of jobs in Georgia likely will require some form of a college education, whether a certificate, associate’s degree, or bachelor’s degree.1 Expected earnings are an important factor in making the decision to pursue a certain degree or major, but these data have not previously been publicly available. With this in mind, the Georgia Higher Learning and Earnings Report presents earnings information for Georgia technical college and college/university graduates who work in Georgia after earning their degrees.2 It presents median, 25th percentile, and 75th percentile wages by degree category (certificate, bachelor’s, etc.), technical college or college/university, program of study, and whether the student graduated with the HOPE scholarship/grant for the first and fifth year after graduation. In addition, it explores award patterns by gender and race/ethnicity.3 In addition to degree type and program of study, it is important to note that many factors, such as student ability/motivation, college selectivity, and job market conditions affect earnings, so the results in this report should not be interpreted as a guarantee of employment or earnings. The report is limited to wage data on graduates who work in Georgia for employers that provide wage data to the Georgia Department of Labor, so it does not include wages earned in out-of-state jobs, as an independent contractor, or as a federal or military employee. With this in mind, the results should be seen as one piece of information that students and parents can use when making program and degree choices.
