Self-Reported Academic Record: Accessing Your Academic Record (2024)

FAQs

What is a self-report academic record? ›

The Self-Reported Academic Record (SRAR/SSAR) allows applicants to record and submit courses, grades, and test scores as part of your college application to participating colleges and universities.

To log in to the SRAR/SSAR, go to https://srar.selfreportedtranscript.com/generic.aspx or http://ssar.selfreportedtranscript.com. Enter the email address used to create your SRAR/SSAR account and click Continue to Login.

Community Colleges almost always only want a final transcript at the end of senior year - unless you are applying to an honors program. Four-year colleges will want a transcript of some type or a self-reported academic record (SRAR) with your application.

In general, using the SRAR allows colleges to review applications more quickly, because they do not have to wait for their systems to process students' transcripts as they come in.

Problem: You forgot or didn't fill out the Self Reported Academic Record (SRAR) correctly or forgot to link it to a specific school. Possible Solutions: If it's still before the deadline, just make the change. If it's after the deadline, contact admissions to see if you can still submit it.

Once your SRAR is complete and submitted, you cannot make changes to your SRAR. If your SRAR is incorrect, a UT representative will contact you. If you need to make changes to your SRAR, please contact Undergraduate Admissions at admissions@utk.edu or 865-974-1111—we will be happy to help you update your SRAR.

You're asking whether universities look at records from previous schools as part of the admission process? Broadly speaking, yes, of course they do. As a practical matter, universities look almost entirely at the last school attended.

Important Note: DO NOT MAKE A MISTAKE WHEN SELF-REPORTING TEST SCORES. Colleges can rescind an offer of admission when a student intentionally or unintentionally self-reports their scores incorrectly.

Self-reporting grades at the point of application also means that offers of admission will be sent out earlier and you can start planning for post-secondary. Self-reporting grades will permit the University to automatically consider you for admission and scholarships.

If you fail to do this, your application will be incomplete. So, even after you've input all your data, remember that you're not quite done. Go and check on all of your SRAR-school applications and be sure that you've linked every application with your SRAR.

Does Srar cost money? ›

The SRAR is free and should take roughly an hour to complete if you have a copy of your high school transcript available.

The school-reported GPA reflects the completion of 11th grade, but the self-reported GPA reflects the GPA when students submitted their applications in 12th grade. Secondly, the various types of high school GPA (e.g., academic GPA, total GPA, weighted GPA, and unweighted GPA) may cause confusion in reporting GPA.

A self-report is any method which involves asking a participant about their feelings, attitudes, beliefs and so on. Examples of self-reports are questionnaires and interviews; self-reports are often used as a way of gaining participants' responses in observational studies and experiments.

Simply put, it's the act of reporting any scores you earned on specific tests directly on your college application without having to send in official score reports from testing agencies or your school.

Examples of self-report designs are questionnaires, interviews (structured and partially semi-structured) and diaries.
