2. Transcripts

If you are a high school graduate, make sure that your high school has forwarded your transcripts to SSC Admissions. If you are a GED student, have your official GED transcripts sent to SSC. In Cook County, call 847-328-9795.

If you have attended other colleges, you must have your transcripts sent to the SSC Admissions if you wish to have your transcripts evaluated for possible transfer credit. Two to three weeks after you request the transcripts, call the Admissions Office to verify their arrival at (708) 596-2000, ext. 2329 or 2490.

Students with foreign transcripts must have transcripts evaluated by Educational Credentials Evaluators, Inc. (ECE) during the first semester of attendance at SSC and are responsible for any ECE evaluation fees.
