This Tracker Shows You the Gap. Not How to Prove You Filled It
Earning 24 credits is the finish line your student needs to cross. But colleges don't just count credits, they verify them. Every credit on your transcript needs to be documented with specific course information that an admissions officer can evaluate. Here's what that requires:
Individual Course Records
Each course listed with its exact name, dates taken, credits earned, and final grade, not just subject area totals.
Calculated GPA
Unweighted and weighted GPA calculated from actual course grades, including Honors and AP/PSEO adjustments.
Course Descriptions
A 1–3 paragraph description for each course explaining what was studied, which resources were used, and how the student was assessed.
Formatted Transcript PDF
A professional document colleges can read, with grading scale, credit summary, GPA table, and parent/administrator signature line.
Minnesota Compliance
Documentation that your homeschool meets Minn. Stat. § 120A.22 requirements. Notice of Intent, annual assessment, teaching parent verification.
Secure, Permanent Records
A 4-year record that doesn't disappear when you close a browser tab, stored on your device, always available, exportable anytime.
DiplomaPath handles all of this automatically. Add courses as your student completes them. GPA, credits, and transcript update in real time. When you're ready, export a print-ready PDF.
