All senior mid-semester transcripts have been submitted to the appropriate colleges. If students receive an email that is addressed directly to the student, that is personalized (not automated), and from an actual admissions representative (vs the Admissions Office or generic email address) stating that they have yet to receive the mid-semester transcript, please contact the student's School Counselor. They will be able to provide how they uploaded your transcript and a confirmation ID (if applicable). You can provide this information to the Admissions representative who contacted you. More often than not, the transcript is in the college system, but the college software is having difficulty processing the transcript to attach to your college application. By providing them with how the transcript was uploaded, date of upload, and confirmation ID (if applicable) will help them locate the transcript.

Thank you for supporting our Academic Advising marathon! So what's next?
Justice will be reviewing course enrollments numbers in order to determine course allotments and seat availability and staffing decisions.
Starting after Spring Break, students have an opportunity for three weeks (April 6-24, 2026) to submit any changes to courses that they have requested for next year. Please note that courses may already be closed/waitlisted or no longer being offered.
No more course change requests for SY26-27 will be accepted after April 24, 2026 and students will need to wait until school starts. We have to ensure that new student transfers to Justice are able to still have seats available in needed courses for graduation.
