Locate the contact information of the high school you attended. You can find this information in a local phone book or online. If you are looking online, once you have found the school's official page, look for contact information. There should be a phone number listed for the school on their website.
Call the high school you graduated from. Ask what you will need to obtain an official transcript. You may need to fill out a form. If this is so, you will either be mailed a form or you will need to go online and download the form. Remember to ask for the school's fax number or physical address so that you are able to return the requested documents to the proper place.
Gather the documents that the school requested that you collect. You may need to copy your birth certificate and driver's license to verify your identity. The information you will need to send to your high school will differ depending on the school, so be sure to include everything you were requested to send.
Mail or fax all documents to the school. After the school receives and verifies your information, you will be mailed your high school transcript; or you may be able to request it be sent to the appropriate school or college to which you are applying.
