- Saving money with a special reduced rate
- The perks of a UofL college student:
- Free TARC access

Parents: The Federal Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) prohibits discussion of a student’s academic performance with anyone other than the student. Dual credit UofL instructors follow these FERPA mandates. Please note that parents will not be notified if a participating student is doing poorly in class. A parent may discuss grades with their child but not the instructor. Any grade received in a dual credit class will become a part of the student’s high school and college permanent record.
If you have completed dual credit classes, UofL needs an official copy of each of your college transcripts to award transfer credit. While that course may also be on your high school transcript, credit cannot be awarded without the official copy from the college. If you are unsure what college(s) your dual credit courses were through, please check with your high school guidance counselor.
Order your transcripts when you have finished taking all of your courses at that college, and your final grades have posted. If you can have your transcripts sent before your freshman orientation session, great! Otherwise, print out unofficial copies to bring with you to your orientation session to help ensure you are placed in the proper courses.
Transcripts should be sent to the University of Louisville - Undergraduate Admissions. If the institution you are requesting from needs our email, please enter adetran@louisville.edu.
Below are links to request transcripts from colleges in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. If you don't see your dual credit college on this list, just look up the school and search for "how to order a transcript" or go to the school's registrars office page.
