Official Transcripts

If you have already obtained a university degree and are planning to pursue a graduate degree, send an official transcript showing coursework and conferral of degree directly from the institution, as well as transcripts showing all coursework completed from any other post-secondary institution(s) attended. For some programs, an interim transcript is acceptable if the program of study is close to completion, and then a final transcript showing evidence of degree will be required after completion of the program.

International applicants must submit official transcripts directly from the degree granting institution, Examination Authority or from the applicant providing the transcript remains in the sealed envelope from the institution. Transcripts not in English must be translated by a certified translator along with a note indicating they received documents in a sealed envelope. The original official transcript and the translation must be sent to the Admissions Office directly from the translator.

We also accept World Education Services (WES) credential evaluation reports, directly from WES.
