Official Transcript Definition

Official transcripts must be submitted to the Office of Admission. A transcript is considered official when stamped with the official school seal, signed by the appropriate school official, and received in a sealed envelope from the originating institution. Faxed transcripts are not accepted as official transcripts. For a transcript to be considered official when sent by a third party electronically, the College must be able to authenticate it by logging in with a password to extract the document.

If due to extenuating circumstances, official records cannot be obtained, students may petition the Vice President of Strategic Planning and Enrollment Management for a transcript waiver.
