Planning for College

College Visits

Thinking of going to college but not sure where to go? A great place to start is to schedule a campus visit and connect with a college admissions representative!

Transcript Requests

Once you’ve applied to a college, you will need to send your high school transcript! The Dubuque Community School District uses Parchment, an online transcript request service, to allow users to securely request transcripts 24/7 from any computer with an internet connection.

Transcript requests for current students are processed through Parchment rather than making the request at school.

Request a Transcript from Dubuque Online School

There is no cost for current students (juniors and seniors) to request transcripts. Once a student graduates, beginning August 1 of that year, they will be charged at the alumni rate for each transcript. Learn more at: www.dbqschools.org/transcript-services
