Important Tips for eConnect:
Verify all of your grades are submitted in your eConnect account at the end of every course you have taken as a Dual
Credit student. A grade dispute will not be considered later than the end of the term following the term in which the
grade was awarded. In a summer term, the dispute must be initiated no later than the end of the following fall term.
Request your official transcript from Richland College through eConnect to send to colleges and universities you are
applying to attend after high school graduation.
