I just wanted to tell you that I followed your advice and created my transcript and my parents signed it. Because of your advice, my transcript was accepted and I was able to enroll in my local community college and I will be graduating with my associate's degree with a 4.0 GPA and honors this summer and transferring to a university to get my Bachelor's thereafter. I didn't think I would ever be able to enter into a traditional college because of how horrible my high school education was and had resigned myself to getting a GED and going to cosmetology school since I believed that was the highest level of education I'd ever have the opportunity to achieve. Before I took out loans to go to cosmetology school, I kept remembering what you told me and I decided to take a wild shot at it and now my life, goals, and opportunities have completely changed. I'm getting emotional while writing this, but I never forgot how you helped me. I would have never found out about creating my own transcript if it weren't for you and who knows where I'd be now. You didn't have to help a random stranger like me on the internet but you did anyway, and I cannot thank you enough for helping me and setting me on this path. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I truly believe you changed my life.

I got a little teary eyed just reading it!! What a beautiful story, and will be such an encouragement to others -- thank you for sharing!
And from personal experience, I know Jennifer has a heart to help others. She is a blessing to many.
