Did you take a
Marymount class on South High campus this
past summer ? If you would like it placed
on your transcript please provide your
counselor with a report card from
Marymount. If you do not have one you will
need to call Marymount and have it sent to
you. If you took a class at any other
campus than Torrance High and would like
the class put on your transcript you must
provide your counselor with a transcript
or report card from that school. If you
took a class at a community college please
meet with your counselor so they can
explain the advantages and possible
disadvantages of having the class placed
on your high school transcript.

CSU applications: If
you need to send your SAT or ACT test
scores to the any of the CSU campuses you
can do so by using just one code number
and it will go to all of them--so you pay
for one sending instead of multiples. The
code for both ACT and SAT for the CSU
system is 3594. UC does not have a code
like this and you must send the scores to
the individual campuses. Don't forget to
send your scores to the college campuses.
The scores must come directly from the
testing service (SAT--Collegeboard.com and
ACT --ACT.org).
