Transcripts/Report Cards

  • Grades 9-11: Send the last two years of grade reports/transcripts
  • Grade 12: We must review all three years to determine your ability to graduate from NCA at the end of one academic year. If the 11th grade year is not yet finished, please send what you currently have available (such as first semester grades or a midterm progress report).
  • All students should be prepared to send their final grades once available if they were still in progress at the time of acceptance.
  • International Students: Transcripts must be translated (if not in English) and evaluated (course-by-course with GPA calculation) by a NACES-approved third party, such as Educational Perspectives, Foreign Academic Credential Service, Inc., or World Education Services, Inc. If this step is not completed before arrival, the evaluation fee will be charged to the Student Expense Account, and NCA will arrange for the evaluation on your behalf.

Recommendation letters

  • Domestic students should submit two recommendation letters from core subject teachers of their choice. The teachers must have taught the student within the last academic year. In place of the recommendation letters, we will accept a one-page letter from the students introducing themselves and expressing why they wish to attend NCA, as well as a recent EMA Character Skills Snapshot report.
  • International students should submit two recommendation letters from core subject teachers. One must be from a recent English teacher or tutor if the student is from a country where English is not one of the primary languages. We will accept a recent Duolingo English, TOEFL, iTEP, or Cambridge English placement test score in place of the English recommendation letter. –The second letter can be from a teacher of their choice. We will accept a recent EMA Character Skills Snapshot report in place of the second letter.
