Transcript and Recommendation Requests Process
(How to turn in your college recommendations forms, etc.)
The Student Services Department will use an updated procedure for students applying to colleges in 09-10. Each 11th grade student received a packet of instructions for requesting letters of recommendation and transcripts before summer break and again the first week of school at the Senior Retreat.
The new packets can be viewed and downloaded from the Howard High Guidance website:
http://teacherweb.com/MD/HowardHighSchool/GuidanceDepartment/ap10.stm
Please review the instructions with your child and begin to develop a calendar of deadlines and dates for the college application process. It is important to note that teachers must have at least 30 school days to complete letters of recommendation and that our Registrar’s office must have at least 30 school days for processing transcript packets. If you have any questions regarding the process, please call your child’s counselor at 410-313-2871. Please check the Transcript Process page (located on the Student Services webpage) to download the Transcript Request Packet and Teacher Recommendation Packet
